A poor outlook for endangered species

[L&L Knight <>]

Some news to take your minds off the vitriol of the anti- 
environmentalists.
A short item in today's edition of Science [
Vol. 323. no. 5917, pp. 998 - 999] notes that very few of taxa have  
recovered enough over the last 35 years to be taken off the US  
endangered species list.  A recent review indicates that 80% of the  
1300 species on the list will need constant conservation to survive.   
Ongoing habitat destruction and other threats were going to make the  
situation worse.
