Hi John,

A group of far-right extremists in Congress have put gray wolves in their crosshairs. They want to take away wolves' Endangered Species Act protection and hand management over to states.

We all know what this means for wolves: more hunts, more slaughter, more inhumane snares.

We're ready to protect wolves from this new attack. You can help by making a matched gift to the Saving Life on Earth Fund.

Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado introduced a bill to take away the federal protection we helped restore last year.

It's the same playbook we saw from Trump. Anti-wildlife extremists bend to special interests, who see wolves as pests to be exterminated.

Without protection under the Act, states are free to manage wolves as they please — and the results are deadly.

Idaho proposes to kill up to 800 wolves in its draft plan to eradicate 60% of the wolves in the state.

In 2021, when wolves were without federal protection, more than 1,000 people in Wisconsin used trained hound dogs to hunt wolves — and more than 200 wolves were killed in two days.

Last year Montana approved $500 bounties for dead wolves, and even more in some areas.

We're fighting to get wolves in the northern Rockies federal protection.

And we're in court against the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service over its failure to develop a national gray wolf recovery plan under the Act.

Wolves are still suffering widespread persecution and are far from recovered in the landscapes where they evolved. We'll keep fighting for them until they're given the space they need to live out their wild lives in peace.

Wolves are critical to the landscapes they inhabit — not trophies or trading chips for cash.

The forces at work to make it easier to kill wolves are the same ones that pollute our air and water and put other species at risk.

We'll never stop fighting for wolves and other wildlife in harm's way.

Please help by making a matched gift to the Saving Life on Earth Fund.
