Stop Hunting Endangered Harpy Eagles for Their Feathers

Target: Mr. Rodrigo Chaves Robles, President of Costa Rica

Goal: Take immediate action to protect the Harpy Eagle, an endangered species threatened by habitat loss and hunting, in Costa Rica.

The Harpy Eagle is a majestic and iconic bird of prey that plays a vital role in the ecosystem of Costa Rica. However, due to habitat loss and hunting, the Harpy Eagle is now critically endangered, with only a few hundred individuals remaining in the wild.

Habitat loss caused by deforestation, agricultural expansion, and infrastructure development is the leading threat to the Harpy Eagle’s survival. Additionally, hunting and poaching for their feathers and body parts are putting immense pressure on this species.

It is imperative that immediate action be taken to protect the Harpy Eagle in Costa Rica. This requires the strengthening of law enforcement and governance, along with habitat conservation and restoration, and education and awareness-raising initiatives to promote sustainable wildlife use and alternative livelihoods.

Through effective law enforcement and governance, habitat conservation and restoration, education, and alternative livelihoods, we can protect the Harpy Eagle from habitat loss and hunting and preserve the biodiversity of Costa Rica.

Sign below and demand that Mr. Rodrigo Chaves Robles, President of Costa Rica, take action and support these efforts.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Mr. Robles,

I am writing to urge you to take immediate action to protect the Harpy Eagle, an endangered species threatened by habitat loss and hunting, in Costa Rica. The Harpy Eagle is a vital part of the ecosystem and plays a significant role in maintaining the balance of nature.

Habitat loss caused by deforestation, agricultural expansion, and infrastructure development, and hunting and poaching for their feathers and body parts are putting immense pressure on this species. To address this issue, we need to strengthen law enforcement and governance, conserve and restore their habitat, promote sustainable wildlife use and alternative livelihoods, and raise awareness among the public.

By doing so, we can protect the Harpy Eagle and ensure the long-term wellbeing of Costa Rican people. We urge you to take immediate action and support these efforts.
