1Opinion of the CourtTabor, J.
A father appeals the termination of his parental rights in a private termination action. He contends he did not abandon his daughter, who is an enrolled member of an Indian tribe. He further contends the child’s mother failed to satisfy the Iowa Indian Child Welfare Act (Iowa ICWA), Iowa Code chapter 232B (2007) in two ways: (1) by not showing his continued custody was likely to result in serious emotional or physical damage to his daughter and (2) by not providing evidence of “active efforts” to prevent the break-up of the Indian family. We affirm the juvenile court’s decision.
