The U.S. does it again …. this time in Hawaii

@birdlifeglobal.bsky.social
‼️📰 Today, the federal government announced major changes that would weaken the Endangered Species Act.
🚨 These changes would put birds like Hawai’i’s ‘I’iwi at risk, removing protections from threatened species and their habitats.

The American eel is an iconic species native to North America. Today it’s Endangered. Its numbers have plummeted to historic lows.
At #CITESCoP20, we will urge Parties to support Proposal 35, which would provide critical oversight to help prevent overexploitation and illegal trafficking of eels. 🌎
