Major Cut Proposed for Marbled Murrelet Habitat
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has proposed cutting designated critical habitat for the marbled murrelet, a threatened Pacific seabird, by more than 90 percent. The federal agency said the drastic reduction is warranted because much of the habitat identified as vital to the survival of the robin-sized seabird is protected by other existing regulations and plans.
