Endangered Species Act
Number of pages:
4
ABSTRACT:
4 pages in length. The original Endangered Species Preservation Act was passed into law by Congress in 1966, which provided limited protection to species that were native to their given area and equally as limited means for mandated protection. While it was an unprecedented move toward safeguarding with such implementation as land acquisition for protecting existing habitat, the original Act did not go any distance to secure species preservation as the name implies. It was amended three years later in 1969 to incorporate all animals across the globe who were in danger of extinction. This move was particularly critical to a number of exotic species who could no longer be imported under the Act's directive. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
