RULES FOR PLAYING GOD: THE NEED FOR ASSISTED MIGRATION & NEW REGULATION | Jessica Kabaz-Gomez | 19 Animal L. 111 (2012) | Climate change is quickly transforming habitats. Species in affected regions are facing extinction as they are unable to migrate to suitable environments. This Note discusses assisted migration, the intentional human-assisted movement of imperiled species to suitable habitats outside of their historic range, as an important—though controversial—conservation tool. There are, however, no comprehensive assisted migration regulations in the United States. This Note argues that the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) should be the agency to issue regulations regarding assisted migration because FWS already has broad authority under the Endangered Species Act to conserve wildlife. This Note proposes that new regulations should be based upon existing FWS frameworks. | Article |
