Dear Kathy,
We’re in the thick of one of the biggest fights for our wolves in decades. The stakes are high, and wildlife activists from all around the country are counting on you to save our wolves in the Northern Rockies:
"We're all counting on you and so are the wolves. Please fight on! We're behind you all the way!"
~ Clay from Fishers, IN
Now
it’s time to go on the record to stop the slaughter of hundreds of
wolves. Let federal officials know that you oppose their misguided
plan to eliminate vital protections for Northern Rockies wolves.
Thanks to activists like you, we're seeing great results on the ground -- supporters of common sense wolf management had a strong showing at public hearings in Pendleton and Spokane. And already, activists from across the country have generated nearly 100,000 commentsto the Fish & Wildlife Service about this misguided plan.
Now the Fish & Wildlife Service needs to hear from you. It’s
critically important that activists who live in the gray wolf’s
historic range in the west speak out as the federal government decides
the fate of our wolves. Please take action now!
We’re
all in favor of handing control over to the states when the wolf’s
future in the American West is secured. But Idaho and Wyoming
lawmakers have already announced plans to kill hundreds of wolves,
putting the gray wolf’s future at risk in the West.
In Idaho, the state’s official position -- passed by the legislature -- is that wolves should be removed “by whatever means necessary.” Governor “Butch” Otter wants to kill 80 percent of his state’s wolves -- and has gone so far as to say he wants to be one of the first to shoot a wolf himself. And as many as 2 out of 3 wolves in Wyoming could be shot on sight in some areas of the state.
Time
is running out for our wolves -- help us reach our goal of generating
200,000 comments to the Fish & Wildlife Service before the May 9th
deadline! Make your voice count now!
If gray
wolves are to find a home in their historic range in Washington and
Oregon, adequate numbers need to be maintained in neighboring states.
Unfortunately, Idaho and Wyoming's plans could undermine the long-term
survival of the species, making a full recovery impossible.
Don’t let the federal government put our wolves back at risk. Please, go the extra mile for our wolves today. As someone who lives in a state where wolves belong, it is absolutely critical that federal officials hear what you have to say. And, remember, personalized comments are especially powerful.
Activists
from all over the world are counting on you to continue to be a voice
for our wolves on the frontlines of this important battle. Speak up and go on the record today to protect these special animals.
Sincerely,
