HOST: SINCE THE ENDANGERED

00:08.633 --> 00:10.433 position:10% line:85% size:80%
SPECIES ACT WAS PASSED IN 1966,

00:10.433 --> 00:12.333 position:10% line:85% size:80%
WE'VE SAVED A NUMBER OF ANIMALS

00:12.333 --> 00:14.700 position:10% line:85% size:80%
AND PLANTS FROM EXTINCTION.

00:14.700 --> 00:16.000 position:10% line:85% size:80%
THE NORTHERN FLYING SQUIRREL WAS

00:16.000 --> 00:18.066 position:10% line:85% size:80%
DOWN TO 10 KNOWN SPECIES.

00:18.066 --> 00:19.066 position:10% line:85% size:80%
NOW THERE ARE MORE THAN 11

00:19.066 --> 00:20.533 position:10% line:85% size:80%
HUNDRED.

00:20.533 --> 00:21.800 position:10% line:85% size:80%
BALD EAGLES WERE DOWN TO JUST

00:21.800 --> 00:23.500 position:10% line:85% size:80%
417 BREEDING PAIRS IN THE LOWER

00:23.500 --> 00:24.800 position:10% line:85% size:80%
48.

00:24.800 --> 00:26.000 position:10% line:85% size:80%
NOW THERE ARE MORE THAN 10

00:26.000 --> 00:27.233 position:10% line:85% size:80%
THOUSAND.

00:27.233 --> 00:29.166 position:10% line:85% size:80%
PEREGRIN FALCONS, GRIZZLY BEARS,

00:29.166 --> 00:30.600 position:10% line:85% size:80%
AMERICAN GRAY WOLVES, THE

00:30.600 --> 00:32.633 position:10% line:85% size:80%
CALIFORNIA CONDOR THEY'VE ALL

00:32.633 --> 00:34.633 position:10% line:85% size:80%
BEEN PULL BACK FROM THE BRINK OF

00:34.633 --> 00:35.900 position:10% line:85% size:80%
EXTINCTION.

00:35.900 --> 00:37.100 position:10% line:85% size:80%
ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE'VE

00:37.100 --> 00:38.433 position:10% line:85% size:80%
BEEN ABLE TO SAVE THESES SPECIES

00:38.433 --> 00:39.533 position:10% line:85% size:80%
IS BECAUSE WE'VE PROTECTED

00:39.533 --> 00:40.800 position:10% line:85% size:80%
MILLIONS OF ACRES OF CRITICAL

00:40.800 --> 00:42.000 position:10% line:85% size:80%
HABITAT.

00:42.000 --> 00:43.233 position:10% line:85% size:80%
AND THAT'S BENEFITED ALL THE

00:43.233 --> 00:44.800 position:10% line:85% size:80%
PLANTS AND ANIMALS IN THOSE

00:44.800 --> 00:45.900 position:10% line:85% size:80%
AREAS.

00:45.900 --> 00:47.066 position:10% line:85% size:80%
BUT NOT EVERYONE IS HAPPY ABOUT

00:47.066 --> 00:48.500 position:10% line:85% size:80%
HOW THE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT

00:48.500 --> 00:49.800 position:10% line:85% size:80%
IS USED.

00:49.800 --> 00:51.500 position:10% line:85% size:80%
IT'S A VERY COMPLICATED ISSUE.

00:51.500 --> 00:52.633 position:10% line:85% size:80%
SO SCIENTISTS ARE STUDYING NEW

00:52.633 --> 00:55.066 position:10% line:85% size:80%
WAY TO SAVE SPECIES.
