Trump Admin Rolls Back Endangered Species Protections | Global News
Description
The Trump administration just rolled back a major part of the Endangered Species Act, narrowing what counts as “harm” to animals — now allowing oil drilling and logging in critical habitats as long as animals aren’t directly killed or injured. Environmentalists warn this could push species toward extinction, while industry backers say the law was overused and this restores its original intent. It’s the latest in a pattern of wildlife protections rolled back under this administration — changes previously reversed by Biden — and could undo decades of conservation progress.
