Hi John,

Idaho pays bounties to wolf-killers. Montana wants to exterminate most of its wolves. And in Wyoming, wolf-hunting season never ends.

Despite this ruthless assault, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has just decided wolves in the northern Rockies don't deserve protection.

We're ramping up our next legal battle and preparing for a long court struggle.

Please give now to the Saving Life on Earth Fund to help us win for wolves.

Wolves across the lower 48 are protected by the Endangered Species Act — except in the northern Rockies.

A political compromise made years ago is responsible for these wolves being killed at horrendous rates.

When wolves elsewhere also lost their federal Endangered Species Act protection in 2018, we went to court — and won.

Then we petitioned the Service to restore protection to wolves in the northern Rockies and stop the rampant wolf-killing. It refused.

In Montana trappers can snare multiple wolves, and the trapping season has been expanded. In the current hunting season, more than 200 wolves have been killed — and there are still weeks to go.

You don't even need a license to kill a wolf in Wyoming.

And Idaho has taken away the limits on how many wolves a single hunter can shoot. It's established a year-round trapping season on private property and extended the use of vicious traps and snares.

It has a plan in place to kill up to 800 wolves.

That hostility is exactly why they desperately need federal protection.

We'll keep fighting to save the species we love.

Wolves were once nearly eradicated from the lower 48. They're still trying to recover. In places where they're protected, new packs are forming.

The Center is gearing up to challenge the Service in court.

Wolves are icons of the wild — and deserve to live free from vicious persecution.

We'll never stop fighting for them. Please help today with a gift to the Saving Life on Earth Fund.
