Take Action and write to your congress representatives and senators.

Despite the many species that the Endangered Species Act (ESA) has saved from extinction, including bald eagles, Yellowstone grizzly bears, gray wolves, and whooping cranes, the ESA is under constant attack from Congress and the White House over the past few years.
National Wildlife Federation (NWF) and other conservation groups are working to change this by collecting signatures for the “Endangered Species Act Legacy Pledge”.
