Dear Defender of Wildlife, The rugged, dense forests of northeastern Washington are ideal wolf habitat. And that’s proven deadly to the region’s wolves. As you read this, one wolf has already been killed as part of a kill order issued on a pair of wolves who made their home in these forests. It’s the fourth year in a row that the state has signed a death warrant for wolves in the same area of National Forest. This is a preventable crisis. Despite repeated conflicts between cattle and wolves in the area, the U.S. Forest Service has failed to change how, when or where cattle are permitted to graze in this prime wolf habitat. And year after year, wolves in the area are sentenced to death Entire packs have been wiped out. Don't let more wolves die – tell the Forest Service to end these needless conflicts! These cruel kill orders aren’t working as a deterrent. Even after eliminating wolves from the area, new packs find their way back to these forests. This prime habitat will continue to attract wolves – and unless the Forest Service changes course, wolf killings will continue. Defenders is on the ground in the region, working with landowners, ranchers and state officials to design and implement solutions that protect wolves while minimizing wolf-livestock conflicts. Gunning down wolves year after year is not the answer. With your help, wolves can return safely to their historic range, where they belong. Take action and tell the Forest Service: Prevent wolf-livestock conflict and end wolf killings! Sincerely,
|
