We can do genetics. We can do experiments on fruit flies. We can do experiments on yeast. It's not so easy to do experiments on humans. So, in fact, it helps us, to interpret our own genetic code, to have the genetic code of the other species.

We believe there is a strong case for recovering some amounts that we were not allowed to recover.

Critical habitat can be the most effective tool for recovering endangered species, but this designation amounts to an extinction plan for the red-legged frog. Despite the fact that habitat destruction is the main reason for the frog's decline, the Bush Administration has excluded from today's decision much of the areas necessary for the long-term survival and recovery of the frog.
