Emergency Exemption: Issuance
On November 8, 1994, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service)
issued a permit (PRT-796422) to S.O.S. Care, San Diego, California, to
import (and eventually reexport) up to three newborn captive-born
tigrina (Felis tigrina) from the Conservation Project at the Sao Paulo
Zoo, Sao Paulo, Brazil. The 30-day public comment period required by
section 10(c) of the Endangered Species Act was waived. The Service
determined that an emergency affecting the survival of the tigrina
kittens existed and that no reasonable alternative was available to the
applicant. The tigrina kittens needed immediate medical attention in
order to survive since the mother had rejected them before the 30-day
comment period elapsed.

Fish and Wildlife Service, Office of Management Authority, 4401 North
Fairfax Drive, Room 432, Arlington, Virginia 22203 and must be received

Documents and other information submitted with these applications
are available for review, subject to the requirements of the Privacy
Act and Freedom of Information Act, by any party who submits a written
request for a copy of such documents to the following office within 30
