Hi John,

Gray wolves are months away from being reintroduced to Colorado — but they're already in the crosshairs.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service wants to let state and federal agents kill wolves there. We can't let that happen.

We'll fight to protect the new wolf packs in Colorado. Please help with a gift to the Saving Life on Earth Fund.

The Center for Biological Diversity helped lead the initiative to restore wolves to Colorado. Voters there approved the plan in 2020.

By next year, about a dozen new wolves could be reintroduced in the state. But before these wolves ever reach Colorado, the Service wants a plan in place to allow some of them to be chased down and killed.

We've seen this before in places like Oregon and Washington, where government officials are quick to appease the livestock industry and sell out wolves. It's wrong in those states, and it's wrong in Colorado, too.

The science is clear. Killing wolves increases the risk of further conflicts with livestock. It shatters packs and orphans pups, who then never learn how to fend for themselves.

The Center will keep pushing the Service to fix the rules around Colorado's wolves. With our team of lawyers and support from our activists, we're hopeful that we can make this right

It simply doesn't make sense to bring wolves back just to let them get gunned down by those who see wolves as pests.

The public wants wolves back in Colorado — and expects them to be safe.

With up to a million species at risk of going extinct in the coming decades, it's imperative that wildlife managers and agencies change the way they view wolves and other imperiled species.

Catering to industry is a sure-fire way to tear apart the biodiversity we care so much about. Restoring the wild means protecting species where they live -- not giving the greenlight to kill them.

Please help us protect wildlife with a gift today to the Saving Life on Earth Fund.
