## Abstract

The Service adds 30 kinds of birds, found in Africa and on associated islands, to the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife. All have restricted distributions and are threatened by habitat destruction, human hunting, predation by introduced animals, and various other factors. All were subjects of petitions from the International Council for Bird Preservation submitted in 1980 and 1991. This rule implements the protection of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act), for these birds.
