Slimy Character

Grants Pass, Oregon

Two rare salamanders that live in rocky patches within old growth forests along the Klamath River don‘t need Endangered Species Act protection because existing state and federal protections are adequate to maintain their habitat, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said Tuesday....

"This denial comes from an administration that‘s provided protection to the fewest number of wildlife species of any administration since the Endangered Species Act was passed," Greenwald said. "We‘re going to sue."

Again, and again, and again.
