Quitobaquito pupfish, an ancient species on Earth for 1.6 million years, now survive only in Quitobaquito Spring within Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, near the U.S.-Mexico border. These tiny, tenacious fish endure extreme temperatures and high salt levels, with males turning vibrant blue when defending territory or seeking a mate.

However, new border wall construction in Organ Pipe threatens this unique habitat. The Border Patrol is pumping thousands of gallons daily for concrete, heedlessly draining this precious desert waterway. With construction teams now just miles from Quitobaquito Spring, this essential water source and its endangered pupfish face imminent danger.

The Biden administration plans to waive 26 environmental laws for new border wall construction in Texas. This threatens fragile habitats near a national wildlife refuge, cutting off wildlife like cougars and bobcats from the Rio Grande, and potentially destroying endangered plants crucial for monarch butterflies. The Center for Biological Diversity actively opposes these plans.

As a 501c3 nonprofit, the Center for Biological Diversity works to protect species and their habitats through science and law, believing human welfare is linked to nature's diversity.

After weeks of protests, legal action, and public comments, the last shipping container from former Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey's rogue border wall was removed. This anti-immigrant symbol sliced through a vital wildlife corridor, impacting endangered jaguars and ocelots. The Center's Russ McSpadden called it "perhaps the only major border wall removed globally since the Berlin Wall." Taxpayers, however, still pay millions for Ducey's destructive stunt.

Trump's border wall construction is desecrating indigenous lands. To expedite building, federal authorities have waived numerous laws, including the American Indian Religious Freedom Act, the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, and the Endangered Species Act.

Hia-Ced O’odham activist Nellie Jo David highlights the profound impact on the O’odham people. The new wall in southern Arizona affects communities on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border, threatening their cultural heritage and sacred sites.

The National Confluence, held November 5, 2019, in Sedona, AZ, opened with a keynote address on "Reciprocal Healing: Nature, Health, and Wild Vitality."

This theme emphasizes that healing by the Earth is an active medicine. Robin Wall Kimmerer further explored this concept, focusing on fostering kinship and reciprocity.

The "Reconciling Ways of Knowing Series, Dialogue 3: Braiding Ways of Knowing" featured Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer, author of *Braiding Sweetgrass*, in conversation with Dr. Nancy Turner. They explored how Indigenous and scientific ways of knowing can be integrated, drawing from Dr. Kimmerer's work on traditional ecological knowledge and moss ecology.

Project founders Miles Richardson, Dr. David Suzuki, and Elder Dr. Dave Courchene, Jr. joined the discussion. They connected Dr. Kimmerer's insights to the project's objective: building better relationships across diverse knowledge systems and achieving improved stewardship outcomes.

In the latest Border Views video, the Center's Laiken Jordahl explores Arizona's Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. This vital national monument faces an imminent threat.

It is poised to become one of the first wild places permanently scarred by the Trump administration's border wall. We must act to prevent its construction and protect this irreplaceable natural area.

The Trump administration plans to construct a 30-foot steel border wall through the rugged Huachuca Mountains, specifically at the terminus of the 800-mile federally protected Arizona Trail. This barrier threatens to disrupt the natural habitat of migrating jaguars and ocelots.

Such a wall would also permanently alter the experience for thousands of hikers who utilize the Arizona Trail. Matthew Nelson of the Arizona Trail Association has detailed the significant environmental and recreational consequences of this proposed construction.

Trump waived 41 laws, including the Endangered Species Act, to expedite border wall construction in Arizona. This decision deeply impacts the Center, headquartered just 60 miles north of the

Trump waived 41 laws, including the Endangered Species Act, to expedite border wall construction in Arizona. This decision deeply impacts the Center, headquartered just 60 miles north of the border.

The Arizona-Mexico borderlands form one of North America's largest remaining ecosystem complexes. This vital region, home to diverse wildlife such as coatis, bears, ringtails, jaguars, and javelina, faces significant threats from the accelerated construction.
