Hi John,

Of all the countless sales and deals you'll be offered today, the best thing you can possibly buy is a future for wildlife.

With so many species hovering at extinction's edge, helping to stop those extinctions is a gift to generations to come.

Every gift to the Center's Saving Life on Earth Fund today will be doubled.

We won't send you a tote bag or bumper sticker, but we will fight tooth and nail for every species, large and small.

This month alone, we've gone to court to secure Endangered Species Act protection for Burrington jumping slugs in old-growth forests in Washington and Oregon, rubber boas in Southern California, and Black Creek crayfish in Florida.

We've also sued the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to force it to throw a lifeline to Africa's leopards — and launched new legal campaigns to save California's Santa Ana and Long Valley speckled daces.

As long as the government leaves wildlife helpless to survive, we'll keep going to court to fight back.

And we'll keep winning. Thanks to our legal work, this year:

--Humboldt martens gained more than 1 million acres of critical habitat in Oregon and California.

--More than 15,000 square miles of habitat were safeguarded for endangered West Coast orcas.

--Sierra Nevada red foxes, emperor penguins, Franklin's bumblebees, Carolina madtom catfish and Neuse River waterdogs were all listed under the Endangered Species Act.

--A sprawling Arctic oil and gas project, slated for the heart of polar bear, caribou and migratory bird habitat, was overturned.

Your support of our work to save nature is the most lasting gift you can give. Every lawsuit, every court order, every legislative victory will stand as a testimony to your love of the wild.

We've been doing this work for more than three decades. In that time we've protected more than 700 animals and plants, along with more than half a billion acres of habitat.

But so much more remains to be done.

Please help with a matched gift to the Saving Life on Earth Fund.
