Act with Shedd, Take Action for Endangered Species

We’re all United by Water. It’s Chicago’s iconic river and lake, it’s exemplified when we sing “from sea to shining sea” — it connects us all. It’s up to us to protect the water that sustains people and animals, but these animals are under threat. Recent attempts to weaken the Endangered Species Act, which safeguards southern sea otters like Jade and green sea turtles like Nickel, put aquatic life at risk. Act with Shedd and send a letter to your lawmakers to defend the ESA.
