The Southern Environmental Law Center submits the following comments on behalf of a broad coalition of 39 conservation groups working in the Southeast in support of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's proposal to list the eastern hellbender (Cryptobranchus alleganiensis alleganiensis) as an endangered species under the Endangered Species Act. 89 Fed. Reg. 100,934 (Dec. 13, 2024). Our groups urge the Service to expeditiously issue a final rule listing the eastern hellbender as an endangered species, designating critical habitat for the eastern hellbender, and extending to the eastern hellbender the full protections of the ESA.
