Information:
Water diversions and climate change are pushing Great Salt Lake and other salty lakes in the U.S. West toward ecological collapse. That threatens millions of birds who flock to these lakes to gorge on aquatic invertebrates and fuel their epic migrations.
Wilson's phalaropes, a charming little shorebird species, are especially dependent on saline lakes — and especially at risk of extinction. So the Center for Biological Diversity just petitioned the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to protect them under the Endangered Species Act.
Protecting Wilson's phalaropes will help save their habitat, including Great Salt Lake, and the countless other animals and plants who need saline lakes to survive.
Support our petition: Tell the Service to protect Wilson's phalaropes now.
