American Bald Eagles and the ESA - 8000 nesting pairs? That's enough to call them safe? Really? (video)


It is my firm belief The American Bald Eagle was wrongfully declassified to make way for the continued movement of declassifying other species such as The Northern Spotted Owl. I believe firmly the American Bald Eagle is NOT out of danger and needs to be returned minimally to 'threatened' status.

It is more than right to demand facts from the Interior Department, EPA and Commerce regarding the assault on The Endangered Species Act and even more important to place a moratorium on any further declassification and/or change in the laws until all facts are revealed including any involvement by the Executive Branch of the USA.

I would be especially suspicious of any company with rising stock options that include speculation of any protected lands of the USA and the 'nonsensical' recruitment of scientists with designs on them to do their handy work while exploiting the resources of the American people.

Thank you for your kind attention. Write your legislators. If they don't respond with honest and appropriate measures to protect, elect different representatives. I just don't see it any other way. My children and their children have a right to a heritage that includes species native to this country and rescued away from any 'hint' of endangered or threatened status ! We just don't need the exploitation that bad for an economy.

Any timber industry crying they don't have enough timber to remain viable in the market place are better off out of that market place as they never managed the lands they had well enough in the first place !

I mean who is kidding who here?

Good night.
