Shocking: Despicable Anti-Wolf Bills Advance In Congress
wanted to make sure you saw this message because it’s too important to miss.
Congress is acting at its worst by ignoring the best available science and making critical biological decisions on its own. If these two bills are passed, it could mark another tragic milestone in undermining wolf recovery in America.

Help Stop Despicable Anti-Wolf Bills
Please help protect wolves and other wildlife with a generous gift today! |
You don't have to be a lawyer to understand how downright diabolical and desperate this is.
Recently, two bills were introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives to strip wolves in four states, including Wyoming, of any protection under the Endangered Species Act (ESA).
Congressional action to delist wolves in Wyoming and the Great Lakes is shocking and misguided – these decisions should be based solely on science and not politics!
Please help us fight back and make a generous donation today.
If you love wolves like I do, I need your help!
This kind of bare-fisted power politics makes a mockery of wildlife conservation. If passed, these bills could mark another tragic milestone in undermining wolf recovery in America.
We’re fighting these shameful efforts tooth and nail. And if you love wolves like I do, I need your help!
Please make an urgent donation to help Defenders protect wolves and other imperiled wildlife.
H.R. 843 already has 10 co-sponsors and in one sentence writes wolves in the Great Lakes out of the most important wildlife protection law the nation has ever enacted. If this bill passes, each of the affected Great Lake states would have the power to “manage” wolves within its borders subject to no minimal recovery standards.
H.R. 884, which already has 15 co-sponsors, goes even further. It adds Wyoming’s embattled wolves to the Congressionally unprotected list. And to add insult to injury, it concludes that the forced delisting “shall not be subject to judicial review.”
Those seven words would prevent any court, even the Supreme Court, from reinstating ESA protections, no matter how grave the situation became.
That’s more than wrong. It is Congress acting at its worst by ignoring the best available science and making critical biological decisions on its own.
We are the voice for wildlife– and we are your voice too.
Your support today could make a world of difference for our wolves, and for imperiled wildlife everywhere.
Thanks for all you do.
Sincerely,
