Dozens of scientists from universities and environmental groups are pushing for the removal of the head of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
Williams came to the Biden administration from Montana, whereis legal. She said during her confirmation hearing that the grizzly bear population around Yellowstone National Park has recovered, putting her at odds with wildlife advocates.
The Fish and Wildlife Service did not respond to multiple emails about her qualifications. Interior spokesperson Melissa Schwartz declined to comment on the letter, and the White House did not respond. The scientists calling for her ouster say they're concerned the administration is setting a precedent by sidestepping the scientific education requirement.
“I see this appointment as a tipping point, where politics will forever override statutory credentials,” said Parsons, who authored the letter. Some of the scientists in Wednesday's letter said the decisions on bears and wolves are up to Williams. They said her qualifications could be used as an argument in future litigation over the species.
