WHY WOLVES? 🐺

Wolves are essential for resilient, healthy ecosystems.
As top-level predators, they are influential in shaping and maintaining the structure of their natural communities. Wolves have a trickle-down effect on other populations, a phenomenon known as a “trophic cascade".

As the Trump administration pulls government websites and data offline, it is selectively stripping away the public record, letting the president declare his own version of history, archivists and historians said. nyti.ms/3E9ZtIT

🚨 This move is a blatant act of #VoterSuppression, creating significant barriers to voting—especially for women, seniors & marginalized communities. Stricter ID requirements & attacks on mail-in voting will disenfranchise those who already face unnecessary challenges.

All those Cubans for Trump in Florida who keep giving the GOP control of Florida should feel proud that their votes for mass deportations came true.
