"Tribe Says Drilling Project Would Have 'Heartbreaking' Consequences" [1]

"A few miles outside Glacier National Park in northwest Montana is land known as the Badger-Two Medicine, the ancestral home of the Blackfeet tribe.

But it's also the site of 18 oil and gas development leases, and an energy company is heading to federal court March 10 to fight for the right to drill there after decades of delay.

Blackfeet tribal historian John Murray doesn't want the drilling to begin."

Corin Cates-Carney reports for NPR's Morning Edition March 4, 2016. [2]
