Friend, I’ve got good news and bad news about our work to save grizzly bears.
First, the bad news: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service approved a plan to build new roads and facilitate new logging that would damage important grizzly habitat in Montana. The plan could reverse our progress in restoring grizzly populations.
But here’s the good news: Thanks to funding from our supporters, we’re suing to stop this plan.
Friend, today is National Wildlife Day. So I’m asking you to make a $25 donation to protect grizzlies and other endangered species. If you donate before midnight, your gift will help us hit our $18,000 National Wildlife Day Goal!

Our lawsuits have successfully protected grizzly bears many times over, including a huge victory in 2020 that reinstated Endangered Species Act protections for the Yellowstone region’s grizzly bear population and halted state hunting plans for this magnificent species.
But protecting grizzly bears requires a long-term commitment. The same government agency that attempted to remove federal protections from Yellowstone grizzlies is now approving new developments in grizzly habitat in northern Montana.
We’re taking action against this new threat.
My colleague Benjamin Scrimshaw explained exactly why:
“The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service again brushed under the rug serious threats to Endangered Species Act-protected grizzly bears and bull trout, paving the way for a new wave of road construction and logging projects in the Flathead National Forest. Roads displace grizzly bears and harm bull trout by delivering damaging sediment to their streams.”

This case is just one of the 650+ active legal proceedings Earthjustice is involved in right now.
We represent our clients free of charge, so every case is financed by supporters like you.
For every dollar we raise, we can take on more legal battles for our environment.
That means more cases to protect wildlife like grizzly bears, more advocacy to pass critical climate change legislation in Congress, and more partnerships with communities that are fighting back against pollution and environmental injustice.
If you can give $25 before midnight, we can hit our $18,000 National Wilderness Day Goal. Together, we will protect the earth and all its inhabitants.
