- Feds accused of failing to protect freshwater species
The Center for Biological Diversity accuses the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service of failing to meet Endangered Species Act deadlines to protect five freshwater species, including the Alvord chub and Great Basin ramshorn. The group cites threats like cattle grazing, climate change, and habitat degradation, and seeks a court order to compel the agency to issue required findings.
