MSNBC is trying to tear down the border wall by any means necessary.
The network aired a whole segment today about the animals that will allegedly be negatively impacted by the barrier.
Arizona Congressman Raúl Grijalva and the Center for Biological Diversity have filed suit, demanding an environmental impact study be completed before construction begins.
“Numerous endangered species would be impacted,” the suit claims.
Anchor Craig Melvin asked TV host Jeff Corwin which animals “would suffer from this border wall.”
“If this border wall happens, it will be an unprecedented environmental catastrophe,” Corwin declared.
Move over Chernobyl and Fukushima!
“It’s poised to cut through more than 1,200 miles of habitat along the border between the United States and Mexico.
“There are over 90 threatened and critically endangered species that are in the cross hairs because of this wall,” he said, including “100 migratory birds.”
Corwin said the Mexican gray wolf has “its head on the chopping block” because of the wall.
He was asked if birds could just “fly over the wall.”
“Many animals actually stay very low,” including birds and bats.
“A wall would be a terrible obstacle for them,” Corwin said.
The border wall will reportedly be 30 feet high, according to the Washington Times.
