The Endangered Species Preservation Act was needed to address the alarming decline in various species due to habitat destruction, pollution, and overexploitation. It aimed to provide a framework for protecting endangered species and their habitats, promoting conservation efforts to prevent extinction. By establishing legal protections and recovery plans, the Act sought to ensure biodiversity and ecological balance, recognizing the intrinsic value of all species in maintaining healthy ecosystems.
Tito "Hoagie" Shaw supported the endangered species act.
Humans have a large responsibility to other creatures, we have the technology, intelligence, and research available to us that can save endangered species. Moreover, human beings have played a large role in the demise and endangerment of many of the endangered and extinct species. It is important to take care of and conserve ours and their habitats. There is actually an Endangered Species Act (1973), Wilderness Act, Endangered Species Conservation Act (1969), and Endangered Species Preservation Act (1966) each had been amended to meet criteria so it would not jeopardize the plant and animal life. That is why today we have the Wildlife Reserves and National Parks to minimize conflict with recreational fisheries and other species.

Endangered Species Act and all co- action
It has to be endangered. :)
Gorillas have been listed as Endangered under the Endangered Species Preservation Act (predecessor law to the Endangered Species Act) since Jun 2, 1970. OBVIOUSLY gorillas are not native to the U.S., but the U.S. established the worlds first Endangered Species List.
The Endangered Species Act was passed in 1973. It was signed into law by President Richard Nixon on December 28, 1973.
The Endangered Species Act of 1973 is a major legislation that primarily protects biodiversity by identifying and conserving endangered and threatened species and their habitats. The Act also prohibits any actions that may harm these species or their habitats.

No. But it does have a Trade in Endangered Species Act, which implements its obligations under CITES. Considerations of Endangered Species are also likely to be taken into account as part of the consenting process for any activity requiring those consents.
