| Dear Friend, |
| 216 wolves in three days. |
| Last month hunters in Wisconsin slaughtered at least 216 gray wolves in just three days — one fifth of their population in the state. This happened because before leaving office, the Trump administration stripped these wolves of their federal protections under the Endangered Species Act. |
|
We are in court fighting this decision, and your support today can help us protect wolves and other imperiled wildlife. Will you give $5 today and help ensure wolves get the protections they need?
|
| What is particularly devastating about the hunt in Wisconsin is that it happened during the wolves’ breeding season – which means many of the wolves killed were likely pregnant or mothers to vulnerable new pups. The fact of the matter is that the wolves that were killed last month — an estimated 20% of Wisconsin’s wolf population —would still be helping their species recover if it weren’t for this reckless decision by an outgoing administration. |
| We are in the midst of an extinction crisis. What happened in Wisconsin not only underscores why wolves need protection under the Endangered Species Act — it also shows why we must defend against recent efforts to roll back the Endangered Species Act itself. The last safety net for animals and plants facing extinction must remain intact. |
| Earthjustice attorneys have spent decades protecting gray wolves and other imperiled wildlife. And until the wild is truly protected, we will never rest. Will you help us continue this important work with a gift today? |
| Thank you for your partnership in these fights. |
