Hi John,

The Trump administration just unleashed its biggest attack yet on the Endangered Species Act — and imperiled wildlife will pay for it with their lives.

Trump removed nearly all habitat protections for endangered species.

The Center for Biological Diversity will fight this reckless move at every turn.

Please make an urgent gift now to the Future for the Wild Fund to help us stop this dangerous assault on the wild.

Habitat destruction is the number one cause of extinction.

Florida panthers are being boxed in by sprawling development. Northern spotted owls are losing the old-growth forests they depend on. Atlantic salmon are struggling to survive as their rivers are degraded.

If animals and plants don't have a place to live, they can't survive.

The Act has long recognized this simple fact by protecting species from actions that significantly damage or destroy their habitat. Those protections safeguard forests, rivers, wetlands, deserts, and other wild places where threatened wildlife can feed, breed, migrate, and recover.

Now Trump's anti-nature agenda has thrown that protection away.

This opens the door to more logging, mining, oil and gas drilling, and other destructive projects in habitat endangered species can't live without.

It ignores decades of science and puts thousands of imperiled plants and animals at even greater risk of extinction.

The Center is preparing to challenge this dangerous rollback and defend the Act in court, as we've done every time politicians have tried to weaken our nation's most important wildlife protection law.

We refuse to stand by while this administration dismantles the safeguards that have protected wildlife for generations.
