The peregrine falcon. The eastern mountain lion. These are the images most people have when thinking of endangered and threatened species. What few people realize is that there are numerous species of fish that are also threatened and endangered. And while they may not be what many consider majestic, graceful, and observable creatures, these fish species are interesting creatures in their own right whose existence is every bit as important. New York State waters are home to 19 different fish species that are currently listed as endangered or threatened. While a few of these species (such as lake sturgeon, round whitefish, and mooneye) may be familiar to some people, the majority of them are small, inconspicuous species rarely seen by anyone. endangered species web page New York State's current list of classified fish species not described below include: silver chub (endangered); gravel chub, banded sunfish, swamp dater and spotted darter (all threatened); and black redhorse, mountain brook lamprey, streamline chub, redfin shiner and ironcolor shiner (all special concern). Special "Species Accounts" are available for each of these fish species from DEC's Bureau of Fisheries, Endangered Fish Project, State Office Building, Watertown, NY 13601.

44. Florida Black Bear bear is listed as a threatened species by the state of Florida. It is a candidatefor listing as endangered or threatened under the federal endangered species http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/5960/blkbear.html

Florida Black Bear Ursus americanus floridanus "Are there really bears in Florida?" In fact, an estimated 1,500 Florida black bears remain from a population once thought to number 12,000. They historically ranged throughout the state and into southern Georgia and Alabama. Currently the five major populations are found in the Ocala, Apalachicola and Osceola National Forests in northern and central Florida, the Eglin Air Force Base and Blackwater State Forest complex in the Florida panhandle and the Big Cypress Swamp in south Florida. See map The black bear subspecies is perhaps the strongest symbol for Florida's diverse wildlife. A wide-ranging omnivore, the bear shares habitat with many of Florida's other native species. By protecting the bear and its habitat, conservationists also support many other animals and plants. The Florida black bear is black with a brown muzzle. Some have a white "blaze" on their chests. An average male black bear weighs 350 pounds, while a female averages 150 pounds. Forest habitats, both wetland and upland forests, are the primary homes of the Florida black bear.

48. Endangered Species In Big Bend NP as endangered or threatened are also listed by states. However, a species listedby a state may not be listed federally. This is the case with the black bear ( http://www.nps.gov/bibe/endangered.htm

Endangered Species in Big Bend National Park We humans may be too successful. In expanding over the earth, we have extinguished many forms of life and threatened the existence of still others, greatly accelerating the natural rate of extinction. This weakens the system on which all life depends and impoverishes the quality of our life. Fortunately, many countries and groups are taking steps to stop this loss. The National Park Service's role is to provide undisturbed habitat in the United States where all species, including endangered ones, can continue to exist, subject only to the forces of nature. There have been successes, in parks and elsewhere, and this is a symbol of hope. For it signifies that we can stop the worldwide slide of extinction that we started. The effort to halt human-caused extinctions in the United States is guided by the Endangered Species Act of 1973 . This act defines an " endangered species " as any plant or animal species that is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range. A "

Northern Plains Region Threatened and Endangered Species: Grizzly Bear Ursus arctos Factsheet OFFICIAL STATUS: Threatened. Threatened species are species that are likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of their range. LISTED: 40 Federal Register 145; July 28, 1975. HISTORICAL STATUS: Grizzly bears once ranged from the Arctic Slope to Central Mexico and from the Pacific Coast to Minnesota. In Montana, grizzlies were associated with large buffalo herds, but occurred in forested areas and high mountains as well. As the bison were basically exterminated, the great bear disappeared from its primary foothill/river valley range. PRESENT STATUS: Today, the grizzly mainly occupies high mountain wilderness areas and associated foothills in western and south central Montana. Grizzlies are known to use low-elevation habitats, notably along the east front of the Rocky Mountains and along the base of the Mission Mountains. Grizzlies in the Cabinet-Yank area are being augmented by Canadian populations. Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem populations are stable and at recovery levels. Yellowstone grizzly populations appear to be increasing or stabilizing. HABITAT: Grizzly bears use a wide variety of habitats within a range of variable size (7-1,245 square miles) depending on food availability and distribution. A seasonal elevation gradient is often used including low elevation riparian areas, snow chutes, and meadows in spring and fall, and higher elevation habitats such as subalpine forests, alpine tundra, and boulder fields in summer, early fall and winter. Mixed shrub fields, seeps, grasslands, timbered side hill parks, and old burns are used for feeding and resting. Dense timbered habitats are often used for denning and daytime bed sites. In summary, moist open-land habitats in combination with timbered areas are essential for optimum grizzly bear habitat.

Canada's Endangered Species 256 Canadian species are listed by the Scientific Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) as being extinct, extirpated, endangered, threatened and vulnerable. The list only includes Canada's vertebrate and vascular plant species and was released in April 1994. Definitions are: Extinct - a species formerly indigenous to Canada that no longer exists anywhere. Extirpated - a species no longer existing in the wild in Canada but occurring elsewhere in the world. Endangered - a species threatened with imminent extinction or extirpation throughout all or a significant portion of its Canadian range. Threatened - a species likely to become endangered in Canada if the factors affecting its vulnerability are not reversed. Vulnerable - a species particularly at risk because of low or declining numbers, small range or for some other reason, but not a threatened species. Extinct - 9 species Mammals, 2; Birds, 3; Fish, 4 Dawson's Caribou, Sea Mink, Great Auk, Labrador Duck, Passenger Pigeon, Deepwater Cisco, Longjaw Cisco, Banff Longnose Dace, Blue Walleye Extirpated - 11 species Mammals, 5; Birds, 1; Reptiles, 1; Fish, 2; Plants, 2

Conservationstrategies for the threatened grizzly bear and the endangered wolf are http://www.greateryellowstone.org/wildlife/endangered_species.html

Peregrine Falcon Bald Eagle Trumpeter Swan Blackfooted Ferret Wildlife: Threatened, Endangered and Sensitive Species 1. The Endangered Species Act Twenty years ago Congress passed the Endangered Species Act (ESA), perhaps the most effective environmental law ever crafted. Although the intent of the ESA has often been frustrated by politics and lack of funding, there are species found today in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem which likely would not still be here without its protection. The terms above are employed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the agency charged with administering the ESA. Other agencies and organizations use different terminology for rare species. The U.S. Forest Service maintains a list of sensitive species. The states of Montana and Idaho have lists of species of special concern, while in Wyoming rare species are placed into one of three priority classes. Because all of the species listed as threatened or endangered in Greater Yellowstone are vertebrates, this discussion of the ESA has come to rest in the wildlife chapter of the Blueprint. While emphasis on animal species reflects popular ideas of the ESA, and also current agency priorities, it represents a serious imbalance in public policy. Among the approximately 1,700 vascular plants in Greater Yellowstone are more than 120 rare species, or about 7% of the total known. Sixteen vascular plants are listed as candidate species, yet none of these rare species have been reclassified as threatened or endangered under the ESA. The failure to list any owes both to a lack of biological data and the absence of a strong public constituency for the protection of rare plants.

Winter State Park Events Wild Times Wildlife Service Declines to Put Florida Black Bear on Endangered Species List Florida black bears are considered threatened by the state of Florida, but the federal government doesn't think so. In mid-January, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) re-examined its 1998 determination not to list the Florida black bear as threatened, and decided to stick with its decision. The FWS was prompted to take a look at the bear by a court order that came out of a 1999 lawsuit. Under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), 5 criteria are considered when the FWS decides whether to list a species as threatened or endangered. As the result of a legal challenge to the 1998 determination, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia ordered the FWS to re-examine one of the 5 criteria used in deciding whether to list the Florida black bear. According to that criteria, if regulatory mechanisms in place to protect the bear had been found inadequate, listing the bear as threatened may have been warranted. The ESA defines "threatened species" as any species likely to become an endangered species within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range.

ESA Education Selections... Education Home The Endangered Species Act History of the United States Endangered Species Act Conservation efforts to save species of plants and animals from extinction began in the early 1900s. A species of plant or animal is considered extinct when there are no living members of that group found alive anywhere on Earth; in other words, all members of that group have died. Human activities have caused the extinction of many species. Additional species are still faced with the possibilty of extinction . In December 1973 the United States Congress signed the Endangered Species Act of 1973, to protect and preserve threatened and endangered plants and animals from extinction. The Endangered Species Act of 1973 replaced two previous laws, the Endangered Species Preservation Act of 1966 and the Endangered Species Conservation Act of 1969. Extinction ("X-tink-shun"): the act of becoming extinct, a species is extinct when no living members exist The Endangered Species Preservation Act of 1966 required a list to be made of endangered species and money from the Land and Conservation Funds to be used to purchase habitat for the protection of the species listed. This Act also required the Fish and Wildlife Service, a government agency devoted to the management of fish and wildlife, to spend money on the management of the listed endangered animals. There was one big problem with the Act of 1966. There were no regulations that protected the killing and trading of those listed endangered animals. Therefore animals faced with the possibility of going extinct were listed under the Act of 1966 as needing help and protection, but there were no rules or guidelines developed by Congress to help protect them.
