BALD AND GOLDEN EAGLEPROTECTION ACT

>

>

When America adopted the bald eagle as the national symbol, the country may have had as many as 100,000 nesting eagle pairs. In 1940 the species was threatened with extinction and Congress passed the Bald Eagle Protection Act. A 1962 amendment added the golden eagle, and the law became the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act.

>

The Act prohibits “the take, possession, sale, purchase, barter, offer to sell, purchase or barter, transport, export or import, of any bald or golden eagle, alive or dead, including any part, nest, or egg, unless allowed by permit. “Take” includes pursue, shoot, shoot at, poison, wound, kill, capture, trap, collect, molest or disturb.”

>

Civil penalties for violating the Act include a maximum fine of $5,000 or one year imprisonment. Felony convictions carry a maximum fine of $250,000 or two years of imprisonment. The fine doubles for an organization. Rewards are provided for information leading to arrest and conviction for violations of the Act.

SAVING EAGLES

>

Bah Kho-je Xla Chi (Grey Snow Eagle House)

>

Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma

>

>

The bald eagle stands as a symbol of freedom and national pride. For most Native Americans, the eagle has great spiritual significance; it is said to be the only living thing that has seen the face of the Creator. The eagle carries prayers to the Creator and blessings to the People.

>

Bah Kho-je-Xla Chi opened in January 2006 with two permits from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. A Religious Use permit allows the tribe to house injured eagles and to collect feathers that are molted for cultural uses.

>

The second permit allows the rehabilitation of injured eagles for eventual release. The majority of the eagles are too severely injured to live in the wild, and the bald and golden eagles will be cared for and live at the Grey Snow Eagle House for the rest of their lives. The Iowa Tribe was the first American Indian tribe to be granted this type of permit and they have released several eagles back into the wild.

GREY SNOW EAGLE HOUSE

>

>

The Iowas of Oklahoma are ensuring that future generations will be able to see and revere these creatures. The tribe funded the initial building and continues to pay operating costs and for expansions such as the ICU, quarantine cages, fresh food supply, video surveillance and a new flight cage.

>

Indian Nations from across the US have also supported the Eagle House. Tribes can request feathers for their own ceremonial use; a form is on the Iowas of Oklahoma website.

>

Eagles are still not safe; Victor Roubidoux, Wildlife Manager, explains: “The greatest threat to the eagle population was the change from Endangered status to Threatened status...previously protected lands can now be encroached upon...eagles will lose their habitat.”

>

Tours Grey Snow Eagle House are by appointment only weekends at 10 am and 2 pm405-334-7471
