Dear Friend of Defenders,

Do you hear the call of the wild?

To many, wolves represent America's natural legacy. But these majestic creatures were once nearly wiped out in the lower 48 states. And if we want to keep them here with us, they need our help.

Wolf recovery is in jeopardy: Donate now, and if you pitch in $50 or more, we'll send you this limited-edition 25^th Anniversary t-shirt to thank you for keeping wildlife safe!

Next month will mark the 25^th anniversary of when gray wolves returned to Yellowstone National Park for the first time since their extermination in the park decades earlier.

The reintroduction of gray wolves is one of the greatest conservation successes of our time. But tragically, vocal anti-wolf extremists and politicians have been working hard over the years to turn back the clock on this landmark achievement.

That's why we're asking you: Will you give today to stand with wolves, and receive your commemorative t-shirt celebrating their recovery with your gift of $50+?

The forces working against wolves are clear: The Trump administration's merciless anti-wildlife actions mean that no wolf, polar bear or other imperiled animal is safe.

Earlier this year, this administration announced their intention to strip gray wolves of their federal Endangered Species Act protections, despite the outcry from scientists and wildlife experts.

If you love wolves, now is an important moment to come to their defense.

During this season of giving, I implore you to remember wildlife, and what we owe the natural world. That legacy is the most precious thing we can leave our future generations!

Donate today to save wolves and other wildlife you love. And with a gift of $50 or more, we'll send you our limited edition 25^th Anniversary t-shirt as a gift with our thanks.

Wishing you the best and thanking you for all do.

Sincerely,

Jamie Rappaport Clark President, Defenders of Wildlife

P.S. We hope you'll join us next month in celebrating the 25^th anniversary of the reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone, the Northern Rockies and beyond – and don't miss your chance to get this limited-edition t-shirt celebrating their journey!
