The Trump administration announced it intended to restore changes to the ESA, a move quickly criticized as ensuring a death sentence to countless species.

The new regulations include changes that will eliminate protections afforded to threatened species under Section 4(d) of the Act. bit.ly/3XJbkDP

Wolf 1331F thrived in Yellowstone. Outside the park, she faced a deadly reality: hunters and no protections. Thousands of Northern Rockies wolves face the same fate, often unnoticed. Their stories deserve to be told, and all wolves deserve protection no matter where they roam.

62 wolves have been killed in Montana since hunting season opened. Killing wolves is neither supported by science nor ethics, yet it becomes a reality when wolves lose federal ESA protections.

As the numbers climb, how many more wolves will be lost without reason?

🚨 Wolves still need your voice! Congress is considering bills that could strip protections from gray wolves in 44 states. Losing these safeguards would leave wolves vulnerable to hunting and persecution.

📢 Congress is considering multiple bills that would strip gray wolves and grizzly bears of ESA protections, even though the vast majority of Americans want those protections to remain.

Delisting isn’t recovery, it’s a step backward for their species.

A study in Poland shows that wolves are more likely to flee from human voices than from sounds like dogs barking or birds singing.

"Rather than approaching humans because of a lack of fear, wolves are responding to intentional feeding, unsecured garbage or unprotected livestock"
