Will any animals be removed from the US Endangered Species List before October 2008?

Settled as No

The settlement website does not reveal any new removals from the Endangered Species list

http://www.fws.gov/endangered/

Background:

The US Fish and Wildlife Service maintains its well known Endangered Species List, and frequently adds and removes animals from the list based upon their status in the wild. The West Virginia Northern Flying Squirrel, for instance, was removed from the list on August 25. Are any others getting ready to make the jump from the list?

Settlement details: As reported by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.
