The act has been seen as an attempt by liberals to take legitimate concerns (the threat to the national bird) and turn it into environmental hysteria that interferes with legitimate business interests, individual rights, and states' rights.

The [[Property and Environment Research Center]] notes, "At most, only eight species can be described as recovered: the [[brown pelican]], three [[Palau Island]] birds, the [[American alligator]], the [[Rydberg milk-vetch]], the [[gray whale]], and the [[Arctic peregrine falcon]], although some others that remain listed are doing well." These recoveries are not necessarily the result of the ESA. For instance, the private [[World Center for Birds of Prey]] assisted the peregrine falcon's recovery.<ref>Richard L.
