Since the early ‘90s, Defenders has been pushing the federal government to protect lynx, first by obtaining Endangered Species Act [1] protections for them, then by fighting to ensure they have sufficient habitat protected to survive.

Today, we’re pushing federal officials to create a comprehensive nationwide recovery plan for lynx, the next important step in their long road to recovery.
