The ruling threatens possible prosecutions and raises a clash between the White House and federal courts.

Endangered habitat rule change limits harm definition
The U S Fish and Wildlife Service and NOAA propose redefining harm under the Endangered Species Act to mean only direct injury to a species, excluding habitat destruction. Critics warn it would enable logging, mining, drilling, and development that degrade habitats and threaten imperiled animals like owls and panthers. The move aligns with a 1995 Supreme Court ruling and a 2019–2020 tightening of federal regulations, but conservationists say it weakens protections earned over decades.
