The disease, vacuolar myelinopathy, was identified by pathologists at the United States Geological Survey National Wildlife Health Center in Madison, Wis., and the Southeastern Cooperative Wildlife Disease Study at the University of Georgia. --------- Group marches to protect America's bison- Elders, men, women and children braved the elements as they began a 507-mile trek from Rapid City, S.D., to Yellowstone National Park in Montana. They hope to end senseless slaughter of the last wild buffalo herd. ----------- Carolina developers rush projects as wetland rules near- The days are numbered for Brunswick County, N.C., developers draining as much wetlands as possible during a lapse in state enforcement. ----------- Genetic engineering talks hit snag- U.N.-sponsored talks on regulating trade in genetically modified organisms -- from pest-resistant food crops to pharmaceuticals -- were in knots Tuesday over developing countries' insistence they be allowed to restrict imports and be compensated for any environmental damage. ------------ Residents gain ground on U.S. military waste site- Residents of a mostly black, low-income community in Memphis believe there is an insidious health risk in their midst: a square-mile military depot containing the dangerous detritus of war.
