As a wildlife biologist,…

As a wildlife biologist, educator and tourism operator I am disappointed to hear your proposed changes to the Endangered Species Act. If anything the act could be strengthened to insure the integrity of ecosystems, maintain biodiversity , mitigate climate change impacts, and provide more environmental education and viewing opportunities. These changes reflect the current government disregard for the environment and the "the people" and democracy for that matter. It appears that the government is intent on dismantling any liberal policy or program regardless of its value. I strongly recommend that the act be left as it .
