The 1973 Endangered Species Act made into legal policy the concept that endangered species of wildlife are precious as part of a natural ecosystem. The nearly unanimous passage of this act in the United States Congress, reflecting the rising national popularity of environmentalism, masked a bitter debate. Affected industries clung to the former wildlife policy of valuing individual species according to their economic usefulness. They fought to minimize the laws impact by limiting definitions of key terms, but they lost on nearly every issue. The act defined wildlife as almost all kinds of animalsfrom large mammals to invertebratesand plants. Taking wildlife was defined broadly as any action that threatened an endangered species; areas vital to a species survival could be federally protected as critical habitats. Though these definitions legislated strong environmentalist goals, political compromises made in the enforcement of the act were to determine just what economic interests would be set aside for the sake of ecological stabilization.
