Hi John,

As few as 120 Florida panthers remain in the wild.

If Trump's new plan for the Endangered Species Act moves forward, it'll be lights out for these majestic cats. Their habitat will be paved over, leaving them nowhere to go. So many other species could suffer the same fate.

The Center for Biological Diversity is mounting a full-throttled defense of the Act. Please help by making a matched gift today to the Future for the Wild Fund.

Habitat loss and pollution are two of the biggest causes of the extinction crisis, which is why Trump's plan is so dangerous and cruel.

Hundreds of Florida manatees are dying each year, in part because pollution from wastewater treatment discharges and fertilizer runoff is choking off their supply of seagrass.

Monarch butterflies have declined by 90%. Now the administration wants to undercut any hope for recovery by removing protections for their overwintering forests and letting the last remaining native grasslands and prairies be soaked with pesticides.

In the lower 48, wolverines are now primarily limited to the northern Rockies and North Cascades. As few as 300 remain. Trump's proposal would allow the winter homes of wolverines to be overrun by snowmobiles and carved up by roads.

The plundering of public lands and this massive new assault on the Act are interconnected. It's an attempt to abandon our most vulnerable wild animals and plants and turn wildlife habitat into luxury second houses, drilling pads and timber farms.

The Endangered Species Act has saved 99% of the species under its protection. The administration now wants to tear apart this landmark law so these last wild places can be paved, industrialized, bulldozed and mined.

We can't let it happen.

There's a colossal fight ahead to save the Act and every single species it protects. We’re ready, and I hope you'll join us in securing a safe, enduring future for the wild.
