Listing title

 

 

Through the Listing Program, the Service determines whether to designate a species as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act.

Once listed as threatened or endangered, species receive the full benefit of the Endangered Species Act such as restrictions against taking, transporting or selling listed species; protection from adverse effects of Federal activities; and development and implementation of recovery plans.

For more information about listing under the Endangered Species Act, visit the FWS National Listings web page.
