BP Sued for Burning Endangered Turtles Alive

Go!

ANIMAL welfare groups are suing BP for burning endangered sea turtles and are asking a US court to stop the oil giant's "controlled burns" on the Gulf of Mexico spill.

The lawsuit filed on Wednesday says BP is violating the Endangered Species Act and other laws with their "controlled burns" in the Gulf of Mexico.

I'm sure BP is numb to this sort of thing by now, but I surely don't mind the pile-on -- especially considering the circumstances.
