Trump administration proposes loosening protections for endangered species

  • The Trump administration is proposing to redefine "harm" under the Endangered Species Act to only include actions that directly injure or kill animals, not their habitats.
  • Conservation experts, including Brett Hartl, argue that this change threatens endangered species by ignoring habitat destruction, which is a leading cause of extinction.
  • If finalized, the new rule could facilitate resource extraction activities on lands essential for endangered species' survival and will likely face legal challenges.
  • Publication of the new rule in the Federal Register starts a 30-day public comment period, signaling a potential legal challenge if the change is finalized.
