We got a chuckle out of the June 19 LA Times article on the lawsuit by the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership against the Department of Interior and the Bureau of Land Management for their management of natural gas development on the Pinedale Anticline. Check out the caption they put on the picture showing wildlife and a drill rig*.

*(Hint: The “deer” is actually a pronghorn, commonly called antelope, standing in front of a natural gas rig, not an oil derrick.)
