Summary

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), invite the public to comment on an application for the approval of a cooperative breeding program under the Wild Bird Conservation Act (WBCA). With some exceptions, the WBCA prohibits the importation of exotic birds unless Federal authorization is issued that allows the activity. The regulations implementing WBCA also require that we invite public comment on each application received requesting the approval of a cooperative breeding program.

The agency’s own summary, as published.
