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 .

Gander Academy's Endangered Species in Canada Theme Pages Endangered Species Endangered Species of Canada What's an Endangered Species? Different endangered species appear on different endangered species lists. "Lists are simply a way of organizing things," says Steve Brechtel, senior non-game biologist with Alberta Environmental Protection. "They are constructed differently depending on the context. Geography, politics, culture—they all play a role." Endangered Species: Definition of Terms All terms associated with endangered species, Species, Extinct, Extirpated, Endangered, Threatened, Special Concern, Not at Risk and Data Deficient are defined. What is meant by Endangered Species? Don't know much about extinction or endangered species? No problem! You've come to the right place. Here you will find all kinds of information about what the word "endangered" really means. Not only is there a definition, but also some biological background to help you understand the topic, today's current situation, and how it affects you. Be sure to also visit our Why section, which explains what led to the world's current status, and our How section, which gives tips on how you can help. Why Protect Endangered Species Throughout history of life on Earth, many species have appeared, flourished, and then become extinct. Probably 99 percent of all the species that have ever lived are now extinct. Protecting species is hard and expensive, so why should we work so hard to slow the rate of extinction?

52. ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT: Summary From Federal Wildlife Laws Handbook Critical habitat for a threatened or endangered species (i) the specific areaswithin Provisions are identical to those for fish and wildlife species. http://ipl.unm.edu/cwl/fedbook/esa.html

ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT OF 1973 Overview. The Endangered Species Act provides broad protection for species of fish, wildlife and plants that are listed as threatened or endangered in the U.S. or elsewhere. Provisions are made for listing species, as well as for recovery plans and the designation of critical habitat for listed species. The Act outlines procedures for federal agencies to follow when taking actions that may jeopardize listed species, and contains exceptions and exemptions. The Endangered Species Act also is the enabling legislation for the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, commonly known as CITES . Criminal and civil penalties are provided for violations of the Act and the Convention. Congress found that various species of fish, wildlife and plants in the U.S. have been rendered extinct and others depleted to the point of being in danger of or threatened with extinction. Congress declared that: depleted species are of aesthetic, ecological, educational, historical, recreational and scientific value; the U.S. has pledged to conserve various species facing extinction pursuant to several international treaties and agreements; encouraging states and other interested parties, through federal financial assistance and a system of incentives, to develop conservation programs meeting national and international standards is a key to meeting international commitments and to safeguarding the nation's heritage in fish, wildlife and plants.

State Summary: NEW HAMPSHIRE Sources: New Hampshire Revised Statutes Annotated 1955, 1989 Replacement Edition, Title XVIII, Chapters 206 through 214; 1992 Cumulative Supplement. STATE WILDLIFE POLICY The Legislature finds: species of wildlife normally occurring within this state found to be in jeopardy should be accorded protection necessary to maintain and enhance their numbers; the state should assist in the protection of species of wildlife determined to be threatened or endangered elsewhere pursuant to the Endangered Species Act by prohibiting the taking, possession, transportation or sale of endangered species and by carefully regulating such activities with regard to threatened species. Exceptions for the purpose of enhancing the conservation of such species may be permitted as set forth in this chapter (212-A:3). The Legislature finds that New Hampshire's wildlife resources include more than 300 vertebrate species which normally breed in the state, and 120 bird species which occur as transients, migrants, or wintering populations. Of these 420 species, about 60 are considered fur-bearers, game birds or mammals, or sport fish. Native wildlife constitutes an invaluable natural resource with ecological, scientific, educational, historical, recreational, economic and aesthetic values to state citizens. It shall be the policy of the state to maintain and manage this resource for future generations (212-B:2). (See PROTECTED SPECIES OF WILDLIFE.) The wild black bear has played a vital role in the development and history of the state and is recognized as a valuable game and wildlife resource. It is recognized that bears should be accorded such protection as is necessary to maintain and enhance their numbers (208:24). (See also Agency Funding Sources under STATE FISH AND WILDLIFE AGENCIES; HUNTING, FISHING, TRAPPING PROVISIONS; and ANIMAL DAMAGE CONTROL.)

54. The Endangered Species Act: Aving Species Or Stopping Growth? Systematic federal protection of endangered species of wildlife (as opposed to the To increase the populations of threatened and endangered species, http://www.crowley-offroad.com/endangered_species_act.htm

The Endangered Species Act: Saving Species or Stopping Growth? Robert J. Smith Throughout the United States industry and agriculture are closing down. In the Pacific Northwest millions of acres of federal, state, and private forestlands can no longer be used to produce lumber and pulp. Not only are timber companies and sawmills shutting their doors, but their closure is crippling entire communities as wages and taxes disappear. Studies by Oregon and Washington universities as well as by industry economists suggest a total loss of as many as 100,000 jobs. In parts of northern Florida lands have been closed to mining for phosphates. Over the past few years much of the Texas hill country west of Austin and San Antonio has been closed to virtually all development and much agriculture. Even clearing brush along fencerows carries the risk of criminal prosecution. Consequently, property values in Travis County have plummeted by more than $358 million. History of the Act Systematic federal protection of endangered species of wildlife (as opposed to the general protection of wildlife and the protection of a few named species) began with the passage of the Endangered Species Preservation Act of 1966. That act was very limited in scope, applied only to U.S. species, and entailed little more than authority for modest land acquisition to protect habitat. The Endangered Species Conservation Act of 1969 supplemented the 1966 act by expanding the land acquisition authority broadening the definition of fish and wildlife to include invertebrates, requiring the listing of all species or subspecies "threatened with worldwide extinction," and prohibiting the importation of those foreign species, except for very precisely specified scientific purposes.

Federal Register Environmental Documents Recent Additions Contact Us Print Version Search: EPA Home Federal Register FR Years FR Months ... and Regulations Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Spruce-Fir Moss Spider Determined To Be Endangered All written comments received during the comment period are covered in the following discussion. Ten written responses to the proposed rule were received. The National Park Service, North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, North Carolina Division of Parks and Recreation, and three private individuals expressed strong support for the listing of the spruce-fir moss spider as endangered. One of these responses received from a private individual identified errors in the proposed rule concerning the size range of spruce-fir moss spider, and the likely age at which sexual maturity is reached by the species. Another of these respondents provided additional information concerning the status of the species. The Service has incorporated these corrections and additional information into this final rule. Fraser fir at all four of these sites from which the spider has been recorded (the Swain and Yancey County sites in North Carolina and the Sevier County, Tennessee, site) have suffered extensive mortality, believed to be primarily due to infestation by the balsam wooly adelgid (J. Harp, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, personal communication, 1993), a non-native insect pest believed to have been introduced into the United States, around 1900, from Europe (Kotinsky 1916; Eagar 1984). The adelgid was first detected in North Carolina on Mount Mitchell in 1957 (Speers 1958), though it was likely established at that site as early as 1940, and from Mount Mitchell it spread to the Fraser fir communities throughout the southern Appalachians (Eagar 1984). Most mature Fraser fir are easily killed by the adelgid (Amman and Speers 1965) with death occurring within 2 to 7 years of the initial infestation (Eagar 1984).

DOE Comments Environmental Laws Focus Areas New Regulations ... Home Endangered Species Act and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Purpose and Organization The Endangered Species Act (ESA) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) are major federal statutes designed to protect plant and animal resources from adverse effects due to development projects. Both acts require consultation with wildlife authorities before committing resources to certain types of projects. Please click here to access an Information Brief on the ESA. Endangered Species Act The ESA was originally passed in 1973. It provides for the designation and protection of invertebrates, wildlife, fish, and plant species that are in danger of becoming extinct and conserves the ecosystems on which such species depend. The Act defines an endangered species as any species that is in danger of becoming extinct throughout all or a significant portion of its range. The Act excludes recognized insect pests from this definition. A threatened species is one that is likely to become endangered in the foreseeable future. The Act makes it illegal for any individual to kill, collect, remove, harass, import, or export an endangered or threatened species without a permit from the Secretary of the Department of the Interior (DOI). DOI's Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) performs most administrative and regulatory actions under the Act. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) deals with actions affecting marine species.
