Help Stop Anti-wolf legislation in Utah - Give Wolves a Future in Utah!

Extremists in Utah have it in for wolves. Back in session for less than a week, Republican state Sen. Allen Christensen already introduced, ushered through committee and passed a bill in the state senate that would allow officials to remove or destroy any wolf that crosses into areas of Utah unprotected by the Endangered Species Act.

Urge Cabela’s and Sportman’s Warehouse to Withdraw their Support for Wolf-Killing Derbies

Cabela’s and Sportsman’s Warehouse -- two major outdoor retailers -- sponsored three recent “predator derbies, competitions where contestants were awarded three points for each wolf they killed.
 
The entry fees for these brutal competitions are being funneled to support anti-wolf lawyers and lobbyists working to keep wolves in Greater Yellowstone off the endangered species list… and squarely in the crosshairs of those who would do them harm.  

Fill out the form below to add your name to our petition urging Cabela’s and Sportsman’s Warehouse to withdraw their support for “predator derbies” that target wolves.

Wolves could soon be making a return to Washington state, including the Olympic National Park peninsula... and not just on the silver screen.

Wolves play a big part in the new movie Twilight: New Moon©, but these magnificent animals have played an even bigger role on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula, the real-world setting of the Twilight© movies and books.

Tragically, the extensive wolf extermination campaigns of the late 1800s eliminated these animals from the Pacific Northwest landscape -- tearing a gaping hole in the natural balance and cultural tapestry that makes Washington so special. Now wolves are beginning to return to Washington, and state officials are considering how to best manage them.

Help End Aerial Wolf Killing: Urge Your Representative and Senators to Co-Sponsor the PAW Act

So far, more than 1,000 wolves have been chased down by gunmen in low-flying aircraft and killed with high-powered rifles. This year alone, more than 250 wolves have been killed -- making the 2008/2009 aerial wolf killing season one of the deadliest in years.

Congressman George Miller and Senator Dianne Feinstein have introduced the Protect America’s Wildlife (PAW) Act, federal legislation to end the controversial practice of using aircraft and gunmen to chase and kill wolves in Alaska. Will you urge your representative and senators to help get the PAW Act passed into law?

Complete the form below to urge your representative and senators to sign on as co-sponsors of the PAW Act and help end this awful practice in Alaska and prevent it from spreading to places like the Northern Rockies.

Help the Red Wolves stay truly red.

.

Wolves are on on the endangered species list. Of all Wolves though the Red Wolf is the most critically faltering. The problem is not that they are low in number. The problem is Coyotes. The Red wolves began mating with Coyotes and not other Red Wolves. This is why most Red Wolves now are not pure Red wolves. Coyotes look a lot like Red Wolves so the Wolves must be tested to see if they are true Red Wolves or not. If we don't keep these pure Wolves in zoo or such and mate them the Red Wolf will disappear forever.

We the undersigned, would like to express our opinion on Red Wolves. We would wish to show that we care. We think that pure Red Wolves should be keep in captivity and breed. These should be lead back into the wild so that the Red Wolf can live out.

Give Wolves a 2nd Chance. Speak Out Now to Stop the Slaughter THE GUNS ARE LOADED . . . and Wyoming wants wolves shot on sight.  We only have 3 weeks left to tell the Bush Administration to call off the guns.  Even if you've spoken out to save the wolves recently, please take action again NOW!                                                     A new window of opportunity just opened to save wolves from impending slaughter -- but we only have 3 weeks left before that window slams shut. Please speak out now. http://www.nrdconline.org/campaign/ Act_Now_To_Protect_Gray_WolvesIII We've got one last chance to stop the impending massacre of wolves in the northern Rockies. The Bush Administration has just opened a new public comment period and is inviting you to submit your opinion on its wolf-killing plan today.   Please register your opposition immediately -- even if you spoke out on behalf of wolves this summer. Why the rush to kill wolves? So that hunters can have the ease of finding elk in the same places and in the same numbers that they've grown used to. Wolves are being blamed for those few cases where elk herds have shrunk, even though these declines were caused by drought, shrinking habitat and human hunters -- not just wolves. Put simply, wolves will be exterminated like vermin for doing what they are supposed to do: maintain a healthy ecosystem by preying on elk. Wyoming wants to "control" and kill as many wolves as the federal government will allow. And the state is prepared to spend a scandalous amount of taxpayer money -- more than $2 million a year -- to get the deed done. Your Official Citizen Comment is absolutely critical to blocking the coming slaughter. This summer we generated 100,000 messages of opposition to this cold-blooded plan. In the next 3 weeks, we need to generate another 100,000 messages to stop the killing before it starts, which could be as early as this winter. Wyoming and Idaho are both planning to use aerial gunning -- as well as baiting and trapping -- to exterminate wolves. Taken together, their plans could drive northern Rocky Mountain gray wolves back to the brink of extinction. You're the last, best hope for hundreds of wolves. Right now, they may be surrounded and outnumbered, but with thousands of Americans like you rallying to their aid, we can give them a fighting chance and stave off a government-sponsored massacre. Please submit your Official Citizen Comment today and help us block the Bush Administration’s “Open Fire” order before it is issued this winter. Sincerely, Frances Beinecke President NRDC Action Fund
