Dear Friend,
National Public Lands Day is tomorrow. But wolves in the Yellowstone area are being slaughtered mercilessly. And private interests like trophy hunters and Big Polluters are making matters worse. They’re teaming up to push against protections for these helpless canines. All for the sake of profit.
We won’t stand by and watch them win. That's why we've set an ambitious goal of $60,000 for National Public Lands Day. Because you've been such an essential supporter, we created a custom donation link you can use to be the FIRST to contribute. So please, rush your donation today! Here's your link:
This National Public Lands Day, there’s never been a better time to stand up for vulnerable species like wolves and the planet. But why should we protect them? Well, wolves are keystone species. 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 play a vital role in our wild spaces like Yellowstone, yet they're being hunted relentlessly.
If trophy hunters manage to wipe out wolves, that would leave their lands defenseless. Big Polluters would be able to swoop in and use the land for their own profit. That means mining, logging, factory farming, and other planet-harming practices. Once these habitats are destroyed, wolves will stand no chance at recovering. All so greedy interests can get their payday.
That’s why our National Public Lands Day goal means so much to our vulnerable wolves, the public lands they roam, and our planet. I know you recognize how high the stakes are. Which is why I'm reaching out to you today to be part of this select group for early access.

A mere 6,000 wolves occupy less than 10% of their historic range in the lower 48 states. And with the recent slaughter of 25 Yellowstone wolves, only 89 remain in the national park.
It's not an accident. Trophy hunters and Big Polluters are benefiting from the lack of Endangered Species Act protections for these wolves. But the ESA doesn’t just protect wolves. It’s a vital piece of legislation that stands between a healthy planet and rampant pollution. Without the ESA, countless communities would suffer the impacts of unchecked mining, fracking, and drilling.
We need to stop this before it's too late.
