This undated file photo released by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service shows a sow polar bear resting with her cubs on the pack ice in the Beaufort Sea in northern Alaska. A federal judge on Monday, Oct. 17, 2011, threw out a key section of an Interior Department rule that declared global warming is threatening the survival of the polar bear.
