I have been having a lot of dreams about bald eagles lately. Ever since I learned that the Trump administration was planning to strip key provisions from the Endangered Species Act, I have been feeling for our protected wildlife brothers and sisters. Even though bald eagles were removed from the federal list of threatened and endangered species in 2017, OUR NATIONAL ANIMAL almost disappeared a few short decades ago. The Endangered Species Act is instrumental in protecting nesting sites and important feeding and roost sites for our bald eagles. Without this protection, they may come close to disappearing again. One of the symbols our country has chosen to represent our strength and resilience now risks losing its protection. Ditto ditto American bison (conservation status: near threatened). How can we trust our government's care if they overlook such a thing? Etc, etc, to infinity. I wonder if our "fearless leaders" have noticed but the irony is certainly not lost on me. 🦅 #baldeagle #nationalanimal #nationalsymbol #eagles #birdsofprey #birds #america #unitedstates #endangeredspeciesact #usfishandwildlifeservice #noaa #nationalparkssystem #nationalparksconservationassociation #environmentalprotectionagency #americanbison #inkdrawing #drawing #sketch #habitatprotection #protectourwildlife #protectouranimals #endangeredspecies #howdareyou #resistanddelist https://www.instagram.com/p/BnfvTBmhjCE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=to724cqhbc7r
