[For Americans]

The Utah Prairie Dog is just one of many animals that would benefit from the

Endangered Species Recovery Act of 2007.

 

Take action now and urge your Representative and Senators to co-sponsor the

Endangered Species Recovery Act of 2007 (H.R. 1422 and S. 700), important

legislation that would help farmers, ranchers and other landowners protect

Utah prairie dogs and other imperiled wildlife on their land.

Fast Fact:

Protected as " threatened " under the Endangered Species Act, Utah prairie

dogs exist mainly on private land in Utah.

 

Did you know that more than two-thirds of all wildlife protected under the

Endangered Species Act -- including Utah prairie dogs and other animals --

make their home on private land? Yet conserving habitat for these species

has offered few rewards to farmers, ranchers and other landowners . until

now.

 

Please urge your Representative and Senators to support the Endangered

Species Recovery Act of 2007 (H.R. 1422 and S. 700), important legislation

that would help private landowners protect imperiled wildlife that live on

their property.

 

The Endangered Species Recovery Act of 2007 would provide tax credits,

deductions and exclusions to private landowners who voluntarily take

measures to protect and restore endangered species habitat on their lands --

giving imperiled wildlife like Utah prairie dogs a powerful new ally in

their struggle to survive.

 

Our endangered species need all the help they can get. Send your

Representative and Senators a message now and urge them to co-sponsor the

Endangered Species Recovery Act of 2007 (H.R. 1422 and S. 700).

 

This important bipartisan legislation is awaiting action in both the House

and the Senate. If the bill is ever going to become law, we need to make our

voices heard right now.

 

Please take action now to support this important legislation . and help save

Utah prairie dogs and other imperiled wildlife on private lands.

P.S. In its more than 30-year history, the Endangered Species Act has helped

bald eagles, wolves, grizzly bears and many other species claw their way

back from the brink of extinction. But with global warming, habitat

destruction and so many other ongoing threats, imperiled species need all

the friends they can get. Please take action now...
