There’s a spooky, eerie feeling in the air. Mangled corpses and fragments of body parts covered in pools of blood and guts. Murder, massacre, mayhem. In the distance, the fearful cries of innocent younglings echo across the night. The violent killer lurks among the trees, stalking the forest for more prey to slaughter.

This terrifying tale isn’t from Texas Chainsaw Massacre or any other Halloween horror film for that matter. Then, who is the murderer in the gruesome scene we just described? A trophy hunter. 

Trophy hunters are savagely killing innocent gray wolves and grizzly bears at record numbers, using some of the most horrific hunting methods imaginable and leaving behind graphic scenes that are as gory as the one above. If we’re going to SAVE helpless wolf pups and grizzly cubs from being BRUTALIZED TO DEATH by trophy hunters, we MUST demand stronger federal protections for these defenseless animals. Will you take action now and be a voice for grizzly bears and gray wolves before trophy hunters wipe these iconic species out forever? 

Choked to death by a metal snare. Limbs and body crushed by steel traps. Chased down to exhaustion then run over by a snowmobile that is far too powerful and fast to physically outrun. Dynamited and blown to pieces while asleep at home. Bombarded with dozens of sharp bullets piercing through your skin and organs. 

It probably goes without saying that these are all tortuous and inhumane ways to die. Literal nightmare fuel. But sadly, helpless gray wolves and grizzly bears often live this nightmare as their reality when they are forced to suffer gruesome deaths at the hands of blood-thirsty trophy hunters. 

Protecting two of North America’s most treasured native keystone species should be a federal environmental priority for the sake of biodiversity and a balanced ecosystem that impacts us all. But instead, extremist politicians and Big Polluters are conspiring to actually REMOVE life-saving Endangered Species Act (ESA) protections for grizzly bears and gray wolves.  

Without bold ESA safeguards in place, gray wolves and grizzly bears barely have a chance at survival against rampant trophy hunters — and time is running out to speak up for these beloved animals. That’s why we’re urgently calling on 3,107 more environmentalists like you to speak up by 11:59 PM tonight. TAKE ACTION: Demand stronger ESA protections for gray wolves and grizzly bears NOW! >> 

Thanks for being a voice for vulnerable species,
