The Endangered Species Act (ESA) is a U.S. law aimed at protecting and recovering imperiled species and the ecosystems upon which they depend. One key provision of the ESA is the listing of species as either endangered or threatened, which triggers protections such as prohibiting the "take" (harm, harass, or kill) of listed species and restricting federal agency actions that may jeopardize their existence. The act also mandates the development of recovery plans for these species to promote their survival and restoration.

Some species are imperiled because the movement of ice around Antarctica is cutting off the access to the open sea around some rookeries (nesting sites). Previously, the largest threat was from predatory birds that ate the penguin eggs.

As stated in section 2 of the act, it was designed to protect critically imperiled species from extinction as a "consequence of economic growth and development untempered by adequate concern and conservation."
