DNR vs Dr. Lynn Rogers Hearing continues....

SUMMARY OF EARLY AFTERNOON

Sue Mansfield, Roger's top staffer, was cross-examined by DNR attorney Linda Jensen.

Mansfield defended her decision not to report to authorities, or to report on her online public reports, several incidents in which June (a bear) nipped at her or bit her.

She was asked about the value of mouth-feeding bears.

"Mouth feeding gets overblown," she said.
"I'm not asking you that," Jensen said.
"That's important though," Mansfield said. "It happens very seldom. But it does show how gently bears feed."

As far as feeding bears inside Rogers' cabin, Jensen asked, "Is there any research value in having research bears coming into the research cabin?"

Mansfield responded: "I'm not sure how to respond to that because the response would be so long that I'm not sure we have time for it."

On the stand now....Dr. Rogers.

G'day Peeps, my sunny (so far) Friday, race sailing this afternoon, but a rain storm is predicted.

Penny, the photos are of SOUTH of Sydney. Coincidentally I was talking to a friend in that area exactly the time it started to rain from this weather front. Lily said it was a doozy, windy crazy. The sun was shining where I lived ! :*: We are about 30 min drive apart, across the harbor.

>O< :)^ That is great news, thanks for sharing Penny!

:blink: Flying Car? Think of the air traffic!

Very sad about Derek and Savanah's egg. :(

I'm not sure what to think of the Pistorius trial. Post trial will give a lot more information. It is not the first time someone has killed a loved one by mistake. In the US in the last few months a father shot his daughter (who was sneaking out the window) and a wife killed her husband (suspiciously).

Carole have a great time with your nephew. Hope the business friend is good too, a new friend on the horizon. I too am entertaining this weekend, dinner for 8. I will be making Lasagna and am going to try my hand at Tiramisu which I've never made before. If it flops, the guests will be getting fresh fruit and icecream instead!  :lol:

Closing Arguments by Rogers lawyer Dave Marshall were great!

Quoting Landwehr: "Does the permit provide a reasonable benefit to the citizens of Minnesota"

The work that Dr. Rogers does brings immeasurable benefit to the people of the state of MN, to the United States as well.

"It's clear there are disagreements...
"It's not the government's role to shut down or stifle science when it disagrees."

Rogers hearing is adjourned. No opinion expected for weeks.

Pust will issue order tomorrow regarding legal briefing for her decision making :X:

Hearing is over!


Quick note from the researchers: "The hearing is over! We are very thankful for our legal team. They did an amazing job and were great to work with."

Probably for the last night in a while you just get a photo update.

Mother and cub

Cub tilts head back, yawns & tongue comes out

Another yawn!

Cute cub face

Even cuter

These cubs are tired!

Wandering away

Finding its way back

Juliet prepares to eat snow

Done and heading back to the cubs

Using the latrine

As Mom rakes bedding, cub explores

Looking our way

Exploring further

…but tucks back near Juliet

Juliet looks out the den

Thank you for all you do.

Too many :clk: 's to post so to see them all go here :ok:
