Subject: Death Sentence for Idaho Pups

Help Save Wolves Wolf families raising their pups are being targeted by state officials in Idaho. Please donate now to ensure a lasting future for America's wolves and other wildlife and support our fight against an anti-wolf extremist agenda.  Share on Facebook Dear Wildlife Supporter, Even as Idaho's wolf families try to raise their newborn pups, state officials are issuing death warrants for these amazing animals. They're calling on federal wildlife killers -- and now even local law enforcement -- to kill dozens of wolves living in the wilds of Idaho. Please donate now to save America's wolves and support our fight against an anti-wolf extremist agenda. It's a biological fact: Wolves feed on elk and other wildlife to survive. But Idaho officials are siding with anti-wolf extremists who want to disturb the natural balance of wilderness to artificially boost elk populations -- right in the middle of denning season. Targeting wolf families at the height of denning season is a virtual death sentence for newborn pups -- the most vulnerable members of the pack. Please donate today to help protect wolf pups and other wildlife. In just over three weeks since federal protections were lifted from wolves in the Northern Rockies, Idaho officials have already called in Wildlife Services -- the federal wildlife-killing program -- to track down wolves with radio collars and shoot them from helicopters. Now they're authorizing more killing this spring. They're even allowing local sheriffs and their deputies to take out an entire pack of wolves in the central part of the state. Please support our work to protect the lives of Idaho wolves and ensure a lasting future for these amazing animals. Your generous support will help Defenders... Fight extreme, anti-wolf rhetoric with solid scientific principles, public education and the voices of those who want wolves as part our living, natural heritage; Fight extremist legislation in Congress that threatens the future of wolves in the U.S.; Help reform Wildlife Services into a program that works to help people and wildlife coexist peacefully, rather than just killing thousands of wolves and other wild animals; Help keep wolves and livestock out of harm's way with our pioneering, non-lethal coexistence programs; and Promote other vital efforts to save wolves and other wildlife struggling to survive. For more than 35 years, Defenders has been a leader in the fight to restore wolves to their rightful place in the American landscape. We're not about to give up the fight just as these magnificent animals struggle to expand to their historic range beyond Greater Yellowstone and the Northern Rockies. But our wildlife-saving work isn't possible without the generous support of people like you. Will you donate today for our wolves and other wildlife? For the Wild Ones, Suzanne Asha Stone Northern Rockies Representative Defenders of Wildlife
