As part of an ongoing court dispute by the Center for Biological Diversity, in November 2022, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ordered the United States Environmental Protection Agency to consider harms to plants and animals under the Endangered Species Act, and to put in place appropriate protections.^[3] The draft report by the EPA showed that cyantraniliprole is likely to adversely affect about 41% of endangered or threatened species.^[4]
