The 1970 act explicitly protected “fish,” which were initially defined as invertebrates. And because the act has protected snails and other invertebrates that live on land since, Tuesday’s ruling said it interpreted the legislation to also include bees.

I'd link to the article but it's a nightmare.

Ohhh I see so they initially defined fish as invertebrates. Got it.

Yeah, it all makes sense when you know the full story

None of this makes sense, but you can at least follow the nonsensical chain of events if you know the full story.
