Hi John,

New Interior Secretary Doug Burgum has wasted no time putting grizzlies, polar bears, Florida manatees and other wildlife in harm's way.

Among his first orders of business was a threat to strip protections away from species listed as threatened. It's a giveaway to Big Oil and polluters — and it can't be allowed.

Please help us fight back with a gift to the Future for the Wild Fund.

Trump made this same assault on the Endangered Species Act his first time around. We pushed back and got the most egregious provisions tossed last year.

But this year, in less than a week Burgum launched his anti-wildlife agenda by threatening to remove protections in a secretarial order. That means species we've worked tirelessly to protect are at risk.

The order will make it easier to kill rare and vanishing creatures without any consequence and destroy habitat for grizzlies, Pacific martens, bearded seals, manatees and so many more.

It values private profits over science, forcing agencies to put a dollar number on saving threatened species.

The Center for Biological Diversity believes extinction is always too high a price to pay.

We see wildlife as precious beyond any cost-benefit analysis. The world becomes lonelier and sadder when species go extinct at human hands. The Center has put more than three decades into this lifesaving work, and we know how to win.

We've secured protections for more than 760 species and more than 700 million acres of critical habitat.

What we're witnessing now is the grim Project 2025 agenda being pushed at the highest levels. But it's not inevitable — it can be stopped.

Our legal fight to save the wild from Trump has begun. It will only get stronger, but we need you with us.

Please give now to the Future for the Wild Fund.
