Pygmy Owl Relisted as Endangered Species
The US Fish and Wildlife Services has re-listed the ferruginous pygmy-owl as a threatened subspecies under the Endangered Species Act.
The Pygmy owl is a 6-inch-tall raptor currently found in southern Arizona, southern Texas, and Mexico. This re-instatement is critical to the survival of not only the Pygmy Owl but through its implementation will also help preserve and protect other species throughout the region.
(US Fish and Wildlife Services Press Release)
"The Endangered Species Act provides a critical safety net
for fish, wildlife and plants preventing the extinction of hundreds
of imperiled species."
US Fish and Wildlife Services
The Living Desert Alliance supports this re-instatement and will monitor steps taken by local government officials to insure enforcement of the Endangered Species Act and its requirements.
