Dear Friend,
Grizzly bears once roamed this country from the Pacific Coast to the Great Plains, but the population of this iconic American species in the lower 48 states was almost completely eradicated by the 1930s. Thanks to their protection under the Endangered Species Act since 1975, grizzlies have begun to recover, but their future remains uncertain.
Right now, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is considering removing federal protections for grizzly bears in the lower 48. Delisting these iconic animals would disrupt their progress towards recovery and undo decades of hard conservation work.
Tell the Fish and Wildlife Service to maintain and strengthen grizzly bear protections!
Grizzly bears are an essential part of the American West, a wildlife icon that has been integral to our country for centuries. They embody true wilderness. State and federal agencies must commit to strengthening protections -- not weaken them -- to ensure the survival of this keystone species.
Send an urgent message today to tell the Fish and Wildlife Service to strengthen grizzly bear protections instead of delisting them!
Thank you for all you do for wildlife.
