Fly like and Eagle

The bald eagle has been on and off the endangered and threatened species lists for years, but they have since made a recovery in most states. The bird is no longer a member of the list, but that doesn't mean that there is an abundance of the animal.

Two nesting bald eagles live on UWF campus, which is about to grow exponentially. With all of the construction and expansion, the Bald Eagle's nest will be no longer. According a Pensacola News Journal article on UWF's development, the eagle's live in the Baars-Firestone Wildlife Sanctuary, which will see complete commercial development, if the plan is approved. 

The plan is still awaiting approval by state and federal environmental agencies, like the Environmental Protection Agency. If approved, it looks like the American bald eagle is going to be forced to pack up his belongings and leave. Eagles are only ONE of the species that occupies this sanctuary, There are probably hundreds more that will have to do the same.
