There once was a rule standing tall,
shielding habitats, great and small;
but a rewrite of “harm”
took teeth from its charm—
now legal beats eagle as drill rigs crawl.

	author:	The Associated Press	institution:	NPR	¿porque no los dos?
	tl;dr	The article reports that the Trump administration finalized a rule narrowing the Endangered Species Act’s definition of “harm,” potentially allowing development in endangered species’ habitats as long as animals are not directly injured. It presents environmentalists’ warnings alongside administration and industry arguments about property rights, economic growth, and agency overreach. The article emphasizes the potential ecological consequences and frames the change as a rollback of wildlife protection.
	deeper:	The report is attributed to The Associated Press and includes perspectives from environmental advocates, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, administration officials, industry-aligned Republicans, and the Center for Western Priorities. That gives it reasonable balance and factual context. However, the headline’s wording—“rolls back a key protection”—and the prominent placement of strongly charged environmental criticism give the article a clear tilt toward emphasizing ecological risks. The administration’s position is presented, but largely through official assertions rather than detailed legal or economic analysis. The visible article is also relatively brief, lacks links to the final rule or underlying studies, and contains a minor wording error (“and and other development”).
