Happy Save The Eagles Day!!! Today is a day where we observe the conservation and awareness of the Bald Eagle. The Bald Eagle has been observed as the national emblem of the Unites States of America since 1782. It can be found all over North America from Alaska to Mexico.
The bald eagle was almost extinct through habitat destruction, poaching and food source contamination. Conservation efforts and protections have brought it back from the bink and as of August 9, 2007 it was removed from the endangered species list.
Here is a link to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service page which gives us a detailed look on how to continue supporting the growth and survival of our friend and symbol of American freedom!
