Vermont Removes Bald Eagle From Its Endangered List Seeks To Add Bumblebee

But the step forward comes with several steps back: The Vermont Endangered Species committee is recommending the addition of the American bumblebee, some species of plants and smaller birds to the list. Last year, biologists discovered 54 young eagles in the state and more than 75 were found in a recovery area that spreads into New Hampshire and New York. “They are pretty amazing-looking birds.
