wolves, and they are being slaughtered without mercy. Stop hunters, poachers, and Big Oil from wiping out wolves and destroying our
planet: Donate $27 and your tax-deductible gift will be matched up to $800,000 –
but only until midnight on December 31st!

Wisconsin’s wolves are being hunted down and slaughtered, with tactics including
dynamiting wolf pups in their own dens. Meanwhile, Montana and Idaho have passed
laws legalizing brutal “hunting” methods like snares and helicopter chases. Last
year, Idaho called for the killing of 90% of its wolf population -- only 150 wolves
would remain.

It’s appalling, it’s barbaric, and it’s wrong. This shouldn’t be happening to any animal, period -- let alone a species
already functionally extinct across most of the country. We need your help to
stop these attacks on wildlife and restore Endangered Species Act protections
for wolves!

Together we can protect wolves from barbaric hunting practices and fight for our
planet. Add your support today with a $27 tax-deductible donation that will have
double the impact.

[[link removed]]Wolves were one of America’s greatest conservation stories. After centuries of
being harassed, vilified, and hunted indiscriminately, wolves had begun to make
a slow but promising recovery over the past six decades. But now, this recovery
is under threat after Trump gutted Endangered Species Act protections they
depend on.

Wolves currently occupy less than 10% of their historic range. Without their
Endangered Species Protections, we could lose 60 years of conservation efforts -- and some of America’s most iconic wildlife -- in just the next few years.

The Endangered Species Act is one of the most successful environmental laws ever
passed. It has saved treasured species like sea otters, bald eagles, and grizzly
bears from the brink of extinction. It has also benefited local economies that
depend on these very species to thrive.

But the Trump administration dismantled the Endangered Species Act at every
turn, and it led to horrific outcomes for animals like wolf pups and bear cubs
on wildlife preserves -- who hunters can now legally kill.

Now, lobbyists and bad actors are working to uphold Trump-era rules and gut
other animal protection laws to benefit corporate interests and wealthy
developers. The Interior Department isn't doing enough to stop it, so it’s up to
us to pressure the Biden administration to do the right thing. We need you.
Endangered animals need you.

We only have a matter of days to hit our $800,000 goal, so every dollar is being
matched to get us there in time. There has never been a more impactful -- or more urgent -- time to give.
Nothing else matters if our ecosystems are thrown off-kilter by the
disappearance of wolves. We cannot keep up the fight to protect the only Earth
we'll ever have without your membership gift, Friend.

Friends of the Earth is working to protect wolves, the ecosystems that depend on
them, and our planet. But we need your help. Make a $27 tax-deductible donation
and it will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $800,000.

[[link removed]]Wolves need us, yes, but we also need them. As a keystone species, wolves
balance ecosystems and even drive natural evolution. If a keystone species is removed, the ecosystem drastically changes -- or in
some cases, collapses entirely.

Wolves help keep deer and elk populations in check, as well as predators like
coyotes. This, in turn, benefits many other species. For example, with less
browsing from elk, water-side vegetation returns, bringing different birds to
the ecosystem and helping mammals like beavers. Wolves also help redistribute
nutrients and provide food for other wildlife species, including grizzly bears
and scavengers. Year after year, scientists discover more ways wolves positively
affect ecosystems.

Wolves are a cherished part of our natural heritage, an icon of wilderness, and
an irreplaceable player in ensuring that our ecosystems are healthy and diverse.

Bad things happen when wolves aren’t protected -- when their lives are left up
to the whims of Big Ag interests and the trophy hunting lobby. In the last decade, more than 3,200 wolves have been killed. Only around 6,000
remain.

If we don’t fight back before it’s too late, this fragile species will be driven
to extinction, and America’s wild places will never be the same.

Your support makes twice the difference today. Help keep these last remaining
wolves, their ecosystems, and our planet safe: Donate $27 or more before
midnight and your tax-deductible gift will be matched!
