Dear Friend,

One bullet. That’s all it takes to kill a mama wolf. It only takes one bullet to
leave her pups orphaned and alone. To leave them to starve or fall prey. To
decimate an entire wolf family.

As you read this, trophy hunters are tracking down and targeting wolves across
the country. And right now in the Northern Rockies states, there are no federal safeguards to keep gray wolves safe from them. We can’t stand by and let vicious hunters rip apart wolf families: Donate $100
today and help us reach our $4,300 goal to protect wolves and our planet before
we reach the point of no return.

Left alone, wolf pups can suffer from hypothermia and starvation . But trophy hunters and Big Oil lobbies are actively fighting back against protections for these innocent creatures. Those actions contributed to the
gutting of the Endangered Species Act and protections for wolves, bears, and
other vulnerable species.

In the past decade alone, more than 3,200 wolves have been killed -- it’s cruel, and it’s wrong. We can’t let these ruthless practices continue.
We need your help if we’re going to stop the senseless massacre of vulnerable
wolves and protect our planet. We pulled your record, and here’s what we found:

VULNERABLE WOLVES : FACING EXTINCTION
SUPPORTERS FROM YOUR AREA NEEDED :8

[[link removed]]Records reflect most recent available data. 11:59 p.m deadline.

Wolves aren’t just being killed -- they are being viciously murdered by trophy
hunters and their merciless methods. Wolves are being left suffering for days
with their paws stuck in steel traps. Neck snares cut into their necks, causing them to slowly choke to death while they try desperately to escape. Hunters are even dynamiting nursing wolf mothers and pups in their dens.

Over the past six decades, wolf populations had begun to make a slow recovery.
But these barbaric hunting policies are gravely impacting wolves’ ability to
rebound. And even though wolves are protected within Yellowstone, they aren’t
bound by state or park lines. The second a wolf sets its paws across those
borders, it faces extreme danger. That’s because states in the northern Rockies
refuse to grant them protections through the Endangered Species Act.

Why are private interests pushing so hard against protections for wolves? So
trophy hunters can keep killing wolves in the most vicious ways imaginable. And
so Big Polluters can take over their lands and open them up to mining, logging,
and other planet-harming practices. Friend, are profits
and killing for “fun” really worth pushing wolves toward extinction, and putting
their ecosystems at risk?

I don’t think so. That’s why I’m reaching out to you today. I won’t sugarcoat
it: we’re running out of time to save wolves. If we don’t act soon, you and I
could be part of the last generation to share the Earth with these beautiful
creatures. That’s why wolves need you now more than ever. Will you join us today
and fight to protect America’s remaining wolves and our planet before we lose
them forever?

Don’t let trophy hunters put their personal interests over the survival of
innocent wolves and our planet. Donate $100 or more today and help us reach our
$4,300 goal before the damage is irreversible.

[[link removed]]Did you know that wolves are vital to the ecosystems they live in? They help
keep elk and deer populations in check, allowing other plant and animal species
to thrive. What’s more, the remains of their kills redistribute nutrients and
feed scavengers. They truly are a keystone species!

Yet, trophy hunters and Big Oil lobbies are pushing against protections for
these precious creatures. Their hope is to kill them for sport and invade their
habitats for the sake of corporate greed. Now, only 6,000 wolves remain in the lower 48 states.

And for trophy hunters, it’s not enough to just take the lives of innocent
wolves -- they resort to helicopter chases and torturous snares that fill a
wolf’s last hours with panic, dread, and insurmountable pain. To make matters worse, wolf pups are left orphaned after their mothers are
gunned down in the woods. Without their mothers, wolf pups can suffer from hypothermia, starvation, and predation.

Friends of the Earth is fighting back and working to end the bloody violence
against our last surviving wolf packs and protect our planet. That means we’re
fighting with everything we have to protect the Endangered Species Act. The ESA
allows us to shield endangered species from senseless violence and block
destructive industries like Big Oil, logging and factory farming from destroying
vital habitats for profits. Friend, your membership gift
today can help save wolves from relentless attacks on the ESA and protect the
future of our planet.

But we are facing pushback from private trophy-hunting interests, and we need to
step up our efforts before it’s too late. If just 8 more activists from
your area contribute today, we can reach our $4,300 goal --
will you rush your $15 membership donation now?

Protect the remaining wolves and our planet from greedy private interests.
Donate $100 before the clock strikes midnight and help us reach our $4,300 goal.
