Hi Friend – I wanted to be sure you saw my colleague Nick's email below. Gray wolves are being hunted and killed at an alarming rate in the Northern Rockies region, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has refused to restore the critical protections this species needs to thrive.

We're fighting to defend threatened wolves in court, and to block Congress from stripping critical safeguards from even more endangered species – but we can’t do it without your help. Please, pitch in with a gift to the Sierra Club today.

Dear Friend,
Baited. Tortured. Trapped. Defenseless gray wolves are being slaughtered right now across the Northern Rockies region, where anti-wildlife state lawmakers have made it easy for hunters to use cruel, outdated tactics to kill these vulnerable animals.
Now the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is refusing to restore critical Endangered Species Act protections that would help defend this iconic species. So the Sierra Club is fighting back in court, joining more than a dozen other conservation organizations in filing suit to demand the Biden administration put a stop to these dangerous, unethical killing campaigns against wolves.
Gray wolves have already been pushed to the brink of extinction before in our nation's history – and now it could happen again, if we don't act swiftly to protect them.

We need your help NOW to power this important legal fight and ramp up our grassroots campaign pressuring Congress to protect wolves and other threatened species. Make a gift to the Sierra Club today!
The recovery of gray wolves is one of our country's greatest conservation success stories. Hundreds of thousands of animals were shot, trapped, and poisoned back in the 1800s, sending populations plummeting and throwing the wolves' habitats wildly out of balance. But people like you came together to rescue gray wolves from extinction by demanding an end to the killing, and fighting for wildlife protections.
Now the species is once again highly vulnerable as anti-environment members of Congress are coordinating with special interests like the National Rifle Association and farming lobbyists to remove Endangered Species Act protections from even more wolves.
Gray wolves are essential to maintaining a healthy ecosystem for other animal and plant life in the regions where they thrive. If lawmakers in Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming succeed in driving down wolf populations to the mere hundreds, their gene pool could become so limited that there are no longer enough wolves to ensure long-term adaptation and survival as a species.

We NEED wolves for a healthy, biodiverse environment – and right now, wolves need us. Please, make your urgent gift today to strengthen the Sierra Club's work defending wolves and other endangered species.
We're facing a critical turning point for gray wolves in our country – but I'm hopeful about their future, because I know there are committed, compassionate Sierra Club supporters like you fighting with us to protect them.
Thanks for your support,
Nick Gevock
Northern Rockies Field Organizer
