Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; New 12-month Finding for a Petition to List the Florida Black Bear

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has announced a new 12-month finding for a petition to list the Florida black bear under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, stating that listing is not warranted at this time. The decision supersedes a previous finding that listed the species as threatened but precluded by higher priority actions.
