Hi John,

Idaho's sick assault on gray wolves has taken a dangerous turn: The state wants private contractors to track and gun down wolves from helicopters.

We're doing all we can to stop it, and we need you with us.

Please help us protect Idaho's wolves with a gift to the Saving Life on Earth Fund.

The state has approved a plan for hired agents to chase wolves down from the air across millions of acres in central and southeast Idaho, including national forests.

Our public forests shouldn't be killing fields for wolves. So the Center for Biological Diversity has petitioned the U.S. Forest Service to intervene.

Our campaign moved forward last week when nearly three dozen organizations urged the agency to grant our petition.

If the Service doesn't act, we'll gear up for another legal fight.

It's brutal to stalk animals from helicopters, frighten and exhaust them, and then pick them off one by one.

The noise from wolf-hunting aircraft also puts other endangered species at risk. Grizzly bears can be scared out of their dens, leaving cubs behind. Canada lynx and wolverines can be chased away from the forested areas where they hunt for prey.

The board that approved this plan is funded primarily by tax dollars. The state should be protecting wildlife and public lands, not giving a green light to special interests to wipe out wolves.

The extinction crisis calls us to stand up for the wild. Idaho's plan is immoral and inhumane, and we'll do everything we can to stop it.

Our national forests should be places where wildlife is undisturbed, not terrorized by helicopters on an extermination mission.

We'll never give up fighting for wolves and other wildlife. You can help.

Please give today to the Saving Life on Earth Fund.
