FfFfFfFF 58,375 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 The number of American bald eagles has more than quadrupled since 2009, according to a recent report by the US Fish and Wildlife Service. The species, once on the brink of extinction, has grown to 316,700 birds and 71,400 nesting pairs in the 2019 breeding season. Deb Haaland told the Associated Press that the growth of the species “is also a moment to reflect on the importance of the Endangered Species Act, a vital tool in the efforts to protect America’s wildlife”. Nesting cams, such as the one in Big Bear Lake, have allowed supporters of the bird to view them live.

sarahb 17,213 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I saw one at Busch Gardens during their bird show once. They brought it out and the audience cheered and applauded and I was just like 'yeah I'm definitely in the US alright' Do you feel him sir? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
