Discussion 1: Peer Response and Assignment:

Is it necessary to safeguard endangered species? The Endangered Species Act (ESA) was created in 1973 in order to detect and conserve organisms that are on the verge of extinction. The ESA was passed by Congress with strong bipartisan support and widespread public favor. While everyone agrees that protecting endangered species is a good goal, putting it into practice has proven difficult, and opposition has grown over time. Review the articles below for two distinct viewpoints on the ESA before responding to the discussion prompt.
