Defender,

Anti-wolf forces are moving fast. Countless wolves could pay with their lives – unless we act now!

Your urgent donation to Defenders of Wildlife will help us fight for wolves and other imperiled species. Pitch in to help us stop these attacks before it’s too late!

Montana is the latest example of what happens when wolves aren’t federally protected. After years of wolves being delisted in the state – and despite non-stop efforts to minimize conflicts – some of Montana’s newly-elected lawmakers are writing a death sentence for the state’s wolves.

Their anticipated list of cruel and lethal proposals includes increasing the length of hunting and trapping season and allowing the use of snares to capture and kill wolves.

GIVE TO SAVE WOLVES

Successful federal delisting requires that states have adequate protections in place. But to prematurely delist wolves – in the face of hostile states and while wolves are still recovering within their borders – strips away their last line of defense, opening the floodgates for widespread killing. We’ve seen this play out in other states where wolves aren’t covered by the Endangered Species Act. Imagine if that safeguard didn’t exist?

Wolves could be back on the path to being wiped out in the lower 48 once again.

Your urgent donation to Defenders will give voice to vulnerable wolves and other imperiled animals that have no voice of their own. Please help fight back today!

Together, we’ll hold off the forces seeking to destroy the dream of wolf recovery in suitable areas. We’re calling on the Biden administration to reinforce national wolf protections, and if that fails, we’ll turn back to the courts. We won’t ever give up on wolves.

Thank you for all you do for imperiled wildlife.

Sincerely,
