Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; 90-Day Finding on a Petition To List the White-Tailed Prairie Dog as Threatened or Endangered

Краткое содержание

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), announce a 90- day finding on a petition to list the white-tailed prairie dog (Cynomys leucurus) as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. We find the petition and other information available do not provide substantial scientific or commercial information indicating that listing this species may be warranted. Therefore, we will not be initiating a further status review in response to this petition. We ask the public to submit to us any new information that becomes available concerning the status of the species or threats to it. This will help us monitor and encourage the conservation of the species.
