Agents of Biotic Change Threatened and Endangered Species A number of once common native plant and animal species on the Colorado Plateau have become increasingly rare, and some, particularly native freshwater fishes , have become extinct. Habitat destruction, degradation, and fragmentation, sometimes in combination with hunting and poisoning, has led to significant decreases in the overall populations of a number of species. The federal government has classified a few of these as endangered, meaning that the species is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range. Others, classified as threatened, may reach endangered status if habitats continue to be degraded and populations continue to fall. click here .

State Summary: PENNSYLVANIA Sources: Purdon's Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes Annotated, 1958, Titles 30, 32 and 34; 1992 Cumulative Annual Pocket Part. STATE WILDLIFE POLICY The Commonwealth has sufficient interest in fish, game and wildlife to give it standing, through its authorized agencies, to recover damages against a person who kills fish, game or wildlife, or who pollutes streams, or damages habitat. The proprietary ownership, jurisdiction and control of fish, game or wildlife are vested in the Commonwealth by the expenditure of funds and efforts to protect, perpetuate, propagate and maintain the fish population and protect, propagate, manage and preserve the game or wildlife population as a natural resource (30-2506 and 34-2161). PROTECTED SPECIES OF WILDLIFE The Director of the Fish Commission shall establish Pennsylvania Threatened and Endangered Species Lists. The lists and revision are published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The Fish Commission may promulgate rules and regulations governing the catching, taking, killing, importation, introduction, transportation, removal, possession, selling, offering for sale or purchasing of threatened and endangered fish species and, may issue permits for catching, taking or possessing those species. Violation: third degree misdemeanor. Each fish caught, taken, killed, imported, transported, removed, introduced, possessed, sold, offered for sale or purchased in violation of a regulation pertaining to threatened or endangered species is a separate offense. Catching a threatened or endangered species is not a violation if it is immediately released where captured in the condition in which it was captured (30-2305).

Pesticides: Environmental Effects Recent Additions Contact Us Print Version Search: EPA Home Pesticides Environmental Effects Endangered Species Picture Book ... Related Information Endangered and Threatened Species What Are Endangered and Threatened Species? A century ago, a bird called the passenger pigeon lived in North America. There were so many passenger pigeons that people often saw great flocks of them flying overhead containing thousands, even millions, of birds. Today, there is not a single one left. What happened? The passenger pigeon became extinct . All living passenger pigeons disappeared from the earth entirely. The passenger pigeon became extinct for two reasons. First, the forests where it lived were cut down to make way for farms and cities. Second, many pigeons were shot for sport and because they were good to eat. At that time, there were no hunting laws to protect endangered species like there are now. The passenger pigeon is one of the many plants and animals that once lived on our planet and have become extinct. For example, dinosaurs, mammoths, and saber-toothed tigers all became extinct long ago. More recently, the dodo bird and the sea mink also have disappeared. Extinction has been going on since life began on earth. But today, extinction is happening faster than ever before.

State and territory Internet sites Australia is home to more than one million species, many of which are found nowhere else in the world. About 85 per cent of flowering plants, 84 per cent of mammals, more than 45 per cent of birds, and 89 per cent of inshore, temperate-zone fish are endemic - that is they are only found in Australia. Changes to the landscape and native habitat as a result of human activity has put many of these unique species at risk. Over the last two hundred years many species of plants and animals have become extinct. For the other species of plants and animals whose survival is threatened a range of management and conservation measures are in place. The Australian Government is working in partnership with state, territory and local governments, non-government organisations, tertiary institutions and community groups to ensure the protection of our native species.

Endangered and Threatened Bird Species at the Tijuana Estuary California least tern Western snowy plover Light-Footed Clapper Rail Least bells vireo ... Beldings savannah sparrow California Least Tern ( Sterna antillarum browni The California least tern is a once abundant, migratory sea bird that resides in coastal California and Baja California, Mexico to breed and raise its young. California least terns are small graceful flyers, sometimes seen hovering and diving into the water. They eat mostly small fish from nearshore ocean waters and shallow estuaries and lagoons. The birds winter in the south, but no one knows exactly where. There have been some reports of sightings off the Central American coastline. Males and females look alike but their vocalizations are different. The California least tern was added to the State and Federal endangered species list in 1970. Since than, efforts have been made to identify and protect breeding sites and adjacent water areas. The California Department of Fish and Game began annual population censuses in 1973, and fledgling success monitoring in 1978. Nesting and Breeding Historic nesting sites were primarily sandy, ocean beach strand areas near estuaries and river mouths. Such beaches and coastal nesting opportunities for the least tern have become intensively disturbed or eliminated by human activities, such as seaside recreation, roads, marinas, ports and houses. Because of this disturbance, least terns are more vulnerable. The biggest problems associated with decreased habitat are increased predation by feral cats and other wildlife such as raccoons, crows, and opossums.

A Closer Look at Wildlife Issues Facing Wildlife Should Wild Animals Be Kept as Pets? Circuses ... Videos Receive action alerts, tips, news and special offers via e-mail. Home Wildlife Issues Facing Wildlife Protecting Threatened and Endangered Species Protecting Threatened and Endangered Species USFWS The survival of wildlife is jeopardized by the loss of habitat, over-hunting or over-fishing, the introduction of diseases or parasites, attempts to eradicate "pest" species, and the capture of wild animals and fish for the pet trade, research, entertainment, or other industries. Once a population of animals is reduced by one or more of these human activities, it may be unable to withstand natural limiting factors in the wild—such as predation, limited food supply, or disease—that it might otherwise have survived. The Endangered Species Act The Endangered Species Act (ESA) was enacted to preserve endangered and threatened species and the habitats on which they depend for survival. An "endangered" species is one that is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range. A "threatened" species is one that is likely to become endangered in the foreseeable future. The ESA works in two stages: First, the government protects a species from possible extinction, and then it takes steps to restore the species' numbers to the point where it is no longer threatened.

Canadian Wildlife Service (CSW) Québec region See also Threatened species in Québec A National Approach to Endangered Species Conservation in Canada Over the last 20 years, Canadian governments and private conservation agencies have devoted increasing attention to species at risk. Two committees have been set up to combat species loss: the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) and the Recovery of Nationally Endangered Wildlife (RENEW) Committee. The role of COSEWIC is essentially to determine which species are at risk, and that of RENEW is to co-ordinate plans for their recovery. This program has yielded promising results. Yet from a national viewpoint, initiatives have been somewhat haphazard and disorganized. It seems clear that the current approach is not up to the challenge of the future. Wildlife officials of the federal, provincial and territorial governments have therefore drawn up a proposed National Approach to Endangered Species Conservation in Canada. This national approach would embrace species of all classifications. The process of identifying species at risk will be more objective and open to public participation. Species at risk would receive intergovernmental attention as necessary, while species and populations of local interest would be the responsibility of the appropriate jurisdiction.
