Here is a list of 45 #birds, 22 #mammals, and 30 non-avian #reptiles that are CRITICALLY ENDANGERED due to feral or pet #cats

#invasivespecies #conservation #ornithology #BiodiversityCrisis
pnas.org/doi/pdf/10.107…
first off, I'd like to highlight that "feral #cats on islands are responsible for at least 14% global #bird, #mammal, and reptile extinctions and are the principal threat to almost 8% of critically endangered birds, mammals, and reptiles"
onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…
onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…
AND within our own lifetimes, North America has lost more than one in four of its birds. These are not all critically endangered now, but these trends are pointing to #extinction

“Fisheries official denies coverup allegations over research into endangered B.C. steelhead”

So here are some of the related documents with regards to this issue. The reader can decide whether there is a coverup or not.
1) A "deemed refusal" of an ATIP on steelhead where the OIC office indicates the options are to take DFO to Federal Court to get the records.

Here is correspondence with another OIC investigator trying to get the RPA. DFO continually sends the investigator the wrong documents.

Great news for wildlife & conservation! 🎉 We’re working with the Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA) to distribute $30 million to animal & plant care facilities that lost 25% of revenue or more due to the COVID-19 pandemic: ow.ly/f0Lb50G9ktK
The $30 million was provided to @USFWS via the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. #WildlifeConservation #EndangeredSpecies
Zoos, aquariums & other facilities work alongside the federal government to rehabilitate injured animals & help save endangered species from extinction.
Maintaining high standards of care for captive threatened & endangered species is key to the conservation & recovery process.

If you haven’t heard about #line3 or #StopLine3 please listen! It’s a large pipeline indigenous peoples and other water protectors are fighting for many reason. The first is it will pollute and poison the land and a large water supply in the USA. stopline3.org
On top of the human and environmental damage done generally and to the indigenous peoples. There’s a specific issue in relation too #MMIWG amp.kstp.com/articles/6-arr…

Thing I’ve been hearing a lot recently: “Real Time Fish monitoring should dictate when the CVP & SWP export pumps are turned off to protect #endangeredspecies. See fish-pump off...no fish-pump on”.
There is *so* much wrong with this, it will require a #thread to unpack.

2a) Real time monitoring is not individual surveillance. Ecological monitoring will always miss individuals, esp. for rare species. (ie, we call it “sampling” & use statistics).
Monitoring will likely miss rare species & the early/late migrants that populations depend on.
Monitoring will likely miss rare species & the early/late migrants that populations depend on.
2b) This point — the need to maintain life history diversity to prevent declines — can’t be overstated. Just protecting a narrow slice of these species’ diversity is a recipe for further decline & loss of resilience.

@GavinNewsom @SenToniAtkins I supported then-Secretary @sallyjewell's call to review #endangeredspeciesact safeguards for the Bay’s imperiled fish species. Those reviews were necessary bc endangered fish continued to decline; Jewell wrote that she expected the review to lead to increased protections. 2/

@realDonaldTrump So WOW you robbed our defense funds to go to an ineffective wall THAT THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS oppose.

@realDonaldTrump Fiber-optic cable has already been tested, costs a fraction of the $$ needed for a wall, can be installed w/ little ground disturbance to existing walls, allows animals to migrate, & doesn’t cause flooding. Existing wall is already damaging ecosystems.
