THE BALD EAGLE   

     

Why is the BALD EAGLE an endangered species?

The Bald Eagle is an endagered specie because of farmers who use chemicals such as DDT, which is used to kill unwanted pests.


This chemical gets washed into the lakes and oceans.  The fish started to have DDT inside of them, and the eagles would eat the fish.


Another reason why the eagles started to disappear is that they like to live in tall trees, and many of their trees

were being chopped down by loggers
