What it has done the West Northern Virginia squirrel?

It spread in small colonies around the State, West Virginia Northern flying squirrel is a nocturnal mammal native to the Americas. Although called the flying squirrel, they do not fly but it glides through the air.

Recently, the species has been removed entirely from the protection of the endangered species Act. Even two of the three experts it disagrees with the Elimination of the squirrel, but the service's fisheries and wildlife took away any protection. Interesting is that certain interests of local businesses that mine and fell in the areas of wood supported the movement.

What has been lost? In June 2006 the fish and Wildlife Service released an article about the squirrel saying that it should be deleted from the list of species in danger of extinction. Why was that not taken with a vengeance? It is much more difficult to add something new in a list once it is to keep it there was eliminated. There are not enough action and not enough campaign and thus the squirrel loses its protection.

Does that we wait until it is too late and then lack of cry?

Is it too late to save the West Virginia Northern flying squirrel? What can we do as citizens of concern? We can maintain the pressure for the squirrel to return to the list, even in the threatened rather than the list of species in danger of extinction. Check the areas that are moving operations from logging and mining and protest at all levels if they try to usurp an inch on the Habitat of the West Virginia Northern flying squirrel.
