Center for Biological Diversity v. Salazar (9th Cir. - Aug. 21, 2012)

Polar Bears in Alaska (there are only around 3500 left) versus Oil.  Who wins?

Oil.

(Not that the Ninth Circuit gets this one wrong.  It doesn't.  And not like polar bears in the wild are going to have it great anyway.  Global warming and all.  Thank you, human race.  Good luck to all the polar bears trying to find seals without any nice.  Better luck interbreeding with grizzlies as they extend into your range.  Feel the love.)
