The Species Conservation Act was put in place to provide additional protection of species in danger of worldwide extension. This builds from the Endangered Species Conservation Act of 1966. This act created two lists, one for species native to the US, and another for species native to other countries. The ones on the US list could then be given treatment by the US Fish and Wildlife Service and other agencies. This act made it illegal to trade or kill animals on the list and enforcing that with fines and jail time.
