Giraffe populations have decreased by 40% in recent decades due to threats, including poaching, habitat loss, and more frequent and severe droughts caused by climate change. Recently, the Biden administration’s U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service proposed urgently-needed protections for giraffes under the Endangered Species Act. The public comment period for that proposal is still open — but only until February 19.

Our tallest mammal on earth is in danger – giraffe populations have decreased by 40% in recent decades due to threats, including poaching, habitat loss, and more frequent and severe droughts caused by climate change.

Recently, the Biden administration’s U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service proposed urgently-needed protections for giraffes under the Endangered Species Act. The public comment period for that proposal is still open – but only until February 19.

We already know the new Trump administration has plans to repeal critical endangered species protections. One of President Trump’s executive orders his first week in office involved rolling back the Endangered Species Act.

We have a responsibility to the world to take action to save giraffes.

Help show the Trump administration that there’s immense, nationwide support to protect giraffes and save this iconic species from extinction. Submit your comment now.
