What species have been removed from the Endangered Species Act list?

the only one i can think of at the moment is the eagle.


What year was the Endangered Species Act Passed into Law?

The Endangered Species Act was passed in 1973. It was passed to protect species that were on the brink of extinction. Many animals have been placed on this, few have been removed. The Bald Eagle is considered to be a symbol of this Law's success! Flying High 5500 breeding pairs in th lower 48 states!


What is the Bald Eagle's location?

The Bald Eagle is located in every state in the U.S.A except Hawaii. On August 9, 2007, the bald eagle was removed from the federal list of threatened and endangered species. After nearly disappearing from most of the United States decades ago, the bald eagle is now flourishing across the nation and no longer needs the protection of the Endangered Species Act.


Who makes an endangered animal endangered?

To make an animal endangered a lot of people have to contribute. Most of the time people cut down forests for farmland which destroys their habitat and the animals will be forced to find a new place to live. Animals can also be killed by introduced animals or poached by humans. It is bad to have endangered animals and everyone should try to stop killing them. This depends on whether or not you are asking: a) what are the environmental mechanisms that lead a species to being considered at risk of extinction or endangered? The above portion gives a brief idea of that; b) what makes an animal endangered as determined by scientists? This usually involves various ways of measuring population and determining viable survival. c) what makes an animal endangered as determined by the government and legislation that is supposed to be protective? For instance, Canada's Species At Risk Act or SARA puts species into 4 categories requiring different levels of action in order to protect their survival: Extirpated; Endangered; Threatened; and Special Concern. In this case, Endangered has a specific legal meaning. Also, a species may be considered endangered by biologists but that does not always mean the government in question will recognize and protect that species as endangered because of other concerns, which are often political and economic. Current efforts in the United States to delist the Wolf and Steller's Sea Lion are good examples. The organization that CLASSIFIES animals as endangered is the IUCN.


Do all endangered animals become extinct?

No, in fact some have been removed from the Endangered Species List, or de-listed, at recovered numbers, the Bald Eagle is an example of this. I believe there are about 20 other species that have been de-listed due to their recovery numbers and breeding projections.
