SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Recovery of endangered or threatened
animals and plants is a primary goal of
the Endangered Species Act (Act) (16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and our endangered
species program. Recovery means
improvement of the status of listed
species to the point at which listing is
no longer required under the criteria set
out in section 4(a)(1) of the Act.
Recovery plans describe actions
considered necessary for the
conservation of the species, establish
criteria for downlisting or delisting
listed species, and estimate time and
cost for implementing the measures
needed for recovery.
Section 4(f) of the Act directs the
Secretaries of Interior and Commerce to
develop and implement recovery plans
for species listed as endangered or
threatened, unless such plans will not
promote the conservation of the species.
We and the National Marine Fisheries
Service, as appropriate, have been
delegated responsibility for
administering the Act. Section 4(f) of
the Act requires that public notice, and
an opportunity for public review and
comment, be provided during
development of recovery plans. We will
consider all information presented
during the public comment period on
each new or revised recovery plan.
Substantive comments may or may not
result in changes to a recovery plan.
However, any substantive comments
regarding recovery plan implementation
will be forwarded to appropriate Federal
agencies or other interested entities so
that they can take these comments into
account during the implementation of
their respective management programs.
Individual responses to submitted
comments will not be provided.
The pygmy rabbit is the smallest
rabbit species in North America, with
adult lengths of under 1 foot and
weights of less than 1 pound. The
pygmy rabbit is distinguishable from
other rabbit species by its small size,
short ears, small hind legs, and lack of
white on the tail. Historically, pygmy
rabbits were found throughout the semiarid sagebrush steppe biome of the Great
Basin and adjacent intermountain
regions of the western United States,
PO 00000
Frm 00058
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

including portions of Oregon,
California, Nevada, Utah, Idaho,
Montana, Wyoming, and Washington.
Within this broad biome, pygmy rabbits
are typically found in habitat types that
include tall, dense stands of sagebrush
(Artemesia spp.), on which they are
highly dependent for both food and
shelter throughout the year. The pygmy
rabbit is one of only two rabbit species
in North America that digs its own
burrows and, therefore, is most often
found in areas that also include
relatively deep, loose soils that allow
burrowing.
The pygmy rabbit has been present
within the Columbia Basin, a geographic
area that extends from northern Oregon
through central Washington, for over
100,000 years. This distinct population
segment of the pygmy rabbit, which is
referred to as the Columbia Basin pygmy
rabbit and is the subject of this draft
recovery plan, is believed to have been
disjunct from the remainder of the
species’ range for at least 10,000 years,
as suggested by the fossil record, and
possibly as long as 40,000 to 115,000
years, as suggested by population
genetic analyses. Museum specimens
and sighting records indicate that
during the first half of the 20th century,
the Columbia Basin pygmy rabbit likely
occurred in portions of six Washington
counties, including Douglas, Grant,
Lincoln, Adams, Franklin, and Benton.
Columbia Basin pygmy rabbits were
thought to be extirpated from
Washington during the mid-1900s,
however, they were again located in the
State in 1979. Intensive surveys in 1987
and 1988 discovered five small
subpopulations in southern Douglas
County; three occurred on State lands
and two on private lands. The number
of Columbia Basin pygmy rabbit
subpopulations and active burrows in
Washington has declined dramatically
over the past decade. In addition,
surveys of the last known subpopulation
conducted from 2004 through 2006 did
not detect any animals, indicating that
the Columbia Basin pygmy rabbit may
have been extirpated from the wild. We
listed this distinct population segment
under emergency provisions of the Act
in 2001, and fully listed it as
endangered in 2003, without critical
habitat.
Large-scale loss and fragmentation of
native shrub-steppe habitats, primarily
for agricultural development, likely
played a primary role in the long-term
decline of the Columbia Basin pygmy
rabbit. Imminent threats related to small
population size include chance
environmental events (e.g., extreme
weather), catastrophic habitat loss or
resource failure (e.g., from wildfire),
