John,

Switzerland just quietly greenlit a cruel plan to wipe out 60% of its wolf
population, but together we can stop the massacre.

Under the new plan, which was launched with NO consultation, the Swiss
government will slaughter entire packs of majestic wolves. And the clock
is ticking – on December 1 the massacre of this precious endangered
species is set to begin.

Swiss environmental organizations are mobilising as fast as they can in
response to this horrifying news – but they don’t have much time and need
our help.

Together, we can quickly work with local groups to launch a massive
campaign to stop the slaughter by mounting so much public outrage that the
government has no choice but to change course.

If enough of us chip in, we can target the main decision maker, head of
the Swiss FDA, by showing overwhelming opposition to this carnage –
leafleting all over his neighborhood and hiring mobile billboards to
follow his every move. Can you help stop the wolf massacre?

In the 19th and 20th centuries, the wolf population across Europe
plummeted as humans killed them in vast numbers in an effort to protect
their livestock. In recent years, conservation efforts have helped this
majestic species recover...but now that progress hangs in balance.

Swiss voters made their desire to protect endangered species clear in
2020, when 52% of voters rejected a hunting law that would have made it
easier to kill endangered species such as wolves.

Despite the vote, the Swiss parliament passed a new law in December 2022
that allows the wolf population to be regulated. Then, just days ago, the
government proposed a regulation that will wipe out 19 of the 31 wolf
packs remaining in Switzerland!

This push to exterminate the entire population stems from the fact that
wolves can attack farmers' flocks. And while many advocates accept that on
occasion it is necessary to kill wolves that attack livestock, this plan
moves far away from ‘justified’ shootings and instead will mean the
slaughter of entire packs that have caused no harm.

We can’t let them get away with it.

The slaughter is set to start in just weeks – can you chip in to help
mobilise the Swiss public in opposition to this cruel plan and make sure
government officials are overwhelmed with pressure to stop the massacre?
