WE MUST FIGHT BACK!
BECAUSE EXTINCTION REALLY IS FOREVER!

Here it comes. We knew they would do it and they're going to. This is some very, very sad news.

"Congress taking aim at Endangered Species Act"

This is a part of what you'll read:

"We have hundreds of species that would not be around today if not for the Endangered Species Act," Kostyack said. "Success stories like the whooping crane and the bald eagle and the black-footed ferret are all things we should celebrate and build upon."

Environmentalists said they fear Republican lawmakers are more inclined to try to gut species protections to appease their allies in industry rather than craft changes that will enhance species survival."

and

"For example, the administration has approved a regulatory change allowing the Environmental Protection Agency to take steps toward approval of new pesticides without consulting the wildlife service on risks to wildlife."

and

"Earlier this year, the administration fired a wildlife service biologist after he publicly complained that the agency had manipulated scientific research to appease developers who wanted to build on land critical to the Florida panther, one of the world's most endangered big cats."

First they destroy the plants and animals. What will be next? Who will be next?
