True. The Bald Eagle was put on the endangered species list because of the negative effects of DDT (dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane) and other factors that led to population declines. DDT caused thinning of eggshells, which contributed to reproductive failures in Bald Eagles and other bird species.
