Biodiversity advocates sue Trump administration over alleged failure to protect rare fox species

In a 15-page filing Thursday in federal district court in San Francisco, attorneys for the Center for Biological Diversity and San Francisco Baykeeper sued the Trump administration for failing to protect the Sierra Nevada red fox and seven other at-risk species across the nation, under the Endangered Species Act.

Four years ago, biologists in Yosemite touted two sightings of Sierra Nevada red fox in the far north section of the national park in December 2014 and January 2015, and they said it was the first time Sierra Nevada red foxes were spotted inside the park in nearly a century.
