[[link removed]]STOP THE ATTACK ON WILDLIFE AND THEIR HABITAT
Dear Defender,

We’re in a deadly crisis for threatened and endangered species – so why make it
even harder to save these animals?

This administration is continuing their campaign to gut the Endangered Species
Act (ESA) by proposing a definition of “habitat” that could limit protections
for critical areas that imperiled wildlife need to recover.

We can’t allow them to let the habitat these species depend on be destroyed!

TAKE ACTION: Tell the Interior Department to abandon this attack on protections
for America’s most vulnerable wildlife!

The Interior Department’s definition of habitat has glaring blind spots that
will put vulnerable wildlife in grave danger. They ignore the need to restore
damaged habitat, or to plan for shifts in an animal’s territory due to climate
change.

That could make it harder - or impossible - to protect areas needed now and in
the future for species like the polar bear, Canada lynx, North Atlantic right
whale, coral reefs … the list goes on.

With many species in decline due to habitat loss, we need to keep more habitat
protected to ensure their survival – but the Interior Department insists on
making it easier for the pattern of destruction to continue.

Stand up to keep wildlife from losing the habitat they need to survive. Demand a
stop to this anti-wildlife proposal!

The federal government has a responsibility to ensure that its own actions – and
those it funds and permits – don’t continue to destroy the habitat animals need
to survive.

We need to send this administration a clear message that these maneuvers are
unacceptable and that we’re committed to protecting the wildlife we love!
