🇬🇧 English

This notice confirms that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has issued multiple permits for activities involving endangered species. The permits were granted to zoos, conservation centers, companies, researchers, and individuals after the agency reviewed the applications and public comments. For affected organizations and permit holders, the practical point is simple: the listed permits are now active, but each permit comes with its own conditions. Businesses, animal facilities, museums, universities, and conservation groups should review their permit terms, keep records, and make sure any handling, transfer, import, export, research, or display activity stays within the approved scope.
