Save America's Wolves

Below is a plea from the Defenders of Wildlife

Starting September 1st, Idaho could host the greatest wolf massacre since the 1930s -- with as many as 70 guns trained on each of Idaho’s estimated 1,000 wolves.

Please help us STOP THE DEADLY WOLF HUNT.

This could be the worst wolf massacre in the Lower 48 United States since the 1930s. Hundreds of defenseless wolves will be shot, with many surviving wolf pups left to starve to death. Unless we stop it.

We’ve won the fight for wolves in court before, and we can do it again. Last year,Defenders of Wildlife and our allies convinced a federal judge to stop wolf killing in Wyoming and secured a reprieve for wolves in the Northern Rockies. Now we need your help to win again for our wolves.

Idaho’s wolf hunting season is scheduled to begin in just 14 days. Please make a tax-deductible donation right now to help fund our legal fight and national mobilization campaign to save wolves in Idaho and Greater Yellowstone.

With the lives of so many wolves hanging in the balance, Defenders of Wildlife needs your support to prevent the worst wolf massacre in decades. I hope we can count on your support.

For the Wild Ones,

Rodger Schlickeisen
President
Defenders of Wildlife
