What are some methods that have been used to protect endangered species? State examples of these methods being carried out.

One of the best ways to protect endangered species is to prevent their decline and deterioration in the first place. Toward that end, National Wildlife Federation works to maintain healthy populations of fish, wildlife, and plant species through promoting broad-based conservation efforts such as State Wildlife Action Plans. National Wildlife Federation is advocating for passage of the Recovering America's Wildlife Act, which is a bold new approach for providing the funding needed to carry out these proactive conservation plans.
