Save Southwestern Ocelots

An anti-wildlife and anti-conservation bill, HR 2578, seeks to overturn protections of the Endangered Species Act, the Wilderness Act and the National Environmental Policy Act.

One provision in the bill would be especially disasterous to the Arizona ocelot (Leopardus pardalis sonoriensis), found in northwestern Mexico and southern Arizona, as the bill seeks to waive Endangered Species Act protections within 100 miles of our borders.

Removing protections near the border would cause a crises for this species, as well as other wildlife species that travel between the two countries in seach of food prey and of mates.

For ocelots to thrive or even to persist in Arizona, a few modest needs must be met. They must be protected from being killed. They must have an adequate prey base. And they must have movement corridors to connect with source populations in northern Mexico.
