Bird flu candidate



The American Bald Eagle.

There has been irresponsible dialogue lately in an attempt to make light of the Bird Flu. It is no joke. Precious species are at risk as well as poultry used in diets globally.

There has been discussion to remove the American Bald Eagle from the 'Endnagered Specise List.' I think at this point in time that would be even more irresponsible since we do not know how well they will do with a globally spreading disease that could drastically affect their recovered population.

Don't remove the American Bald Eagle or any other bird species from an endangered list worldwide. Protection of all bird species is vital to a healthy planet.
