N.J. removes bald eagles, ospreys from state endangered species list

Jan 06, 2025

Bald eagles and ospreys have been removed from the New Jersey endangered species list following efforts spanning more than four decades to restore their populations in the state after they dwindled largely due to DDT insecticide use. Bald eagles will now be classified as 'special concern' and ospreys will be classified as 'stable' in the state.
