Happy 40th birthday to the Endangered Species Act! The ESA delivers remarkable successes worth celebrating. From the California condor to the black footed ferret, the return of species from the brink of extinction is something we can all be proud of. We can also celebrate that many other species no longer need the ESA’s protection and have been removed from the list of endangered and threatened species, including the bald eagle—the very symbol of our nation’s strength.
