NEW: Black-footed ferrets were saved by a federal breeding program centered around Colorado.
It was led by Tina Jackson — a USFWS biologist fired by DOGE last month. She's now worried staff and funding cuts could drag the species back to the brink of extinction.

A Colorado biologist led federal efforts to save endangered black-footed ferrets. Trump fired her last month
Tina Jackson fears federal job cuts and funding freezes could imperil work to save the species from the brink of extinction.

“Don’t give up on your dream of curing cancer just because you’re now working a full-time retail job to pay your bills and losing all access to your lab, samples, and funding!”
I'm seeing a lot of support for fired scientists and environmental professionals, which is great
But a lot is phased is "just keep doing your important work," and I need you to know that these are early career people with student loans and no savings, and they need income for food and shelter.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
