Recovery Plans Search
Recovery plans that have been revised or finalized since 1978 are available electronically. Within the lists/links below, if you click on a specific plan name, it will open the PDF version of the recovery plan.
Note: If you click on a specific species' name within the lists/links, you will view the Species Profile for that species. Each species profile includes information on the status of the species such as where it is listed, special rules, critical habitat, Federal Register announcements and notices, Habitat Conservation Plans (HCP), National Wildlife Refuges, and other details that apply to the specific species.
