In the U.S., it is illegal to hunt grebe species. Grebes are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA), a law that safeguards over 1,000 species of migratory birds, including grebes. This act makes it unlawful to pursue, hunt, capture, kill, or sell these birds, as well as their eggs, nests, or parts, without a permit. Violating the MBTA can result in significant fines and penalties. Grebes are mainly admired for their striking appearances and behaviors, and their populations are managed to ensure their conservation.
