How are humans helping to endanger shiny on top eagles?
how is pesticides hurting bald eagles
They're not...
Really... they're not even on the in danger of extinction list anymore. Eagles are abundant animals...
DDT was not if truth be told proven to be hurting them, either. e.e
But, of course, the wackos got it not permitted anyways.
(See, an example of a 'wacko' posted a few below me... I'm not going ot argue, as it's pointless- not going to convince anyone of the truth by arguing -they'll be so set that anything I say is going to be wrong, that they won't listen at all... LOL)
The use of a pesticide call DDT almost wiped out this species. It caused the birds egg shell to be so spare that when the female tried to incubate them, they would break. This was used 30 or more years ago, and is STILL affecting the reproduction of this species today. This have been scientifically proven and documented over and over again...Thorn is obviously uneducated and innocent. Habitat destruction an poaching also plays a role in decreasing populations.

Bald Eagle populations are finally on the rise again, and they have recently be taken off the endangered species list.
pesticides are toxic, so whether the bald eagle breaths some, it gets hurt.
Pesticides flow to the rivers which poison the fish and then, the Bald Eagle eat the fish and gets killed. DDT is illegal, that's how we're helping to Save the Bald Eagle.
Answers: At one point they were on the endangered schedule, today they have been removed past its sell-by date of that list because their numbers have grown over the years due to restrictions on killing/harming the birds.
Pesticides, depending on which ones; can be harmful for anything.
not killing them. in that is a law
