FWS has proposed uplisting the northern long-eared bat to “endangered”

Ag groups are raising concern over the proposed uplisting of the northern long-eared bat from threatened to endangered. The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association says that the move would create an undue regulatory burden for producers and foresters in 37 states.
