In this WLA members-only webinar with USFWS staff, we will hear from the agency personnel responsible for the proposal to add the monarch butterfly as a threatened species to the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife under section 4(d) of the ESA, including the designation of critical habitat for the species.

WLA’s chief policy officer, Traci Bruckner, will ask the questions you need to know as you prepare your comments on the ruling, which is open for public comment until March 12, 2025. Questions like, “What are the likely implications for western landowners from a listing?” and “What agricultural and land management activities would be exempt under the proposal?” and “How would landowners who host monarchs on their land be treated under this rule? How does it attempt to avoid disincentives to restoring monarch habitat?”

Join us and ask your own questions too!
