Fish and Wildlife Seeks Comments on Foreign Endangered Species Permits

## Summary

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is asking for public comments on permit applications to work with endangered foreign species. These permits are needed because the law usually bans activities with these animals unless approved. If you want to share your thoughts, make sure to comment by July 16, 2025!

## Abstract

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, invite the public to comment on applications to conduct certain activities with foreign species that are listed as endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). With some exceptions, the ESA prohibits activities with listed species unless Federal authorization is issued that allows such activities. The ESA also requires that we invite public comment before issuing permits for any activity otherwise prohibited by the ESA with respect to any endangered species.
