Posted Sat Mar 13 2010: from Associated Press:
Endangered listing eyed for US loggerhead turtles http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1268443550
The federal government on Wednesday recommended an endangered-species listing for the loggerhead turtles in U.S. waters, a decision that could lead to tighter restrictions on fishing and other maritime trades. The massive, nomadic sea turtles have been listed since 1978 as threatened, a step below endangered, but federal scientists proposed ratcheting up the designation after reviewing the state of the species. Researchers said primary threats to the loggerheads include injury and death from fishing gear and damage to their nesting areas.
