We had to give you an urgent update on our Endangered Species Day goal to help protect our planet and its most threatened inhabitants. But it’s not looking good: We checked our numbers, and we fell short of what we needed to raise yesterday. |
We KNOW the trophy hunting lobby and their Big Polluter allies won’t soften their attacks on our precious wildlife or the ecosystems they need to survive. So we can’t afford to slow down our efforts to fight back either! |
That’s why we had to extend our deadline for ONE MORE DAY to give us the best chance of closing our fundraising gap, and we’re relying on environmentalists like you to take advantage of this extension before it EXPIRES. |
Will you rush an urgent membership gift to Friends of the Earth Action now, before our limited extension expires at midnight TONIGHT, to help hit our Endangered Species Day goal and protect the only Earth we’ll ever get? |

Without urgent action, majestic species like our gray wolves and grizzly bears won’t know a moment’s peace. They could spend the next winter avoiding gruesome deaths: In some states, they could be watching their families get MANGLED by hunters’ bullets or BLOWN UP with dynamite while sleeping in their dens! Trophy hunters are so committed to their cruel and brutal tactics that they want to attack wolves, bears, and their helpless babies when they're at their most vulnerable! |
Now, as wolves and bears rebuild their strength from the lean winter months, they could be gunned down by BARBARIC artillery weapons that spew bullets at THOUSANDS of miles per hour! Even the fastest animals on Earth can’t dodge this violent onslaught.
We MUST take action for threatened species that can’t fight back for themselves and protect our planet before it’s too late. |

It gets worse: Trophy hunters are moving to remove protections to SLAUGHTER entire wolf packs and mama bears, and greedy corporations are joining their efforts to lobby against the Endangered Species Act (ESA)! They’re working day in and day out to REMOVE these lifesaving protections and push iconic species toward EXTINCTION! |
Once they get wolves and bears out of the way, destructive industries like drilling, mining and logging can swoop in and DESTROY their forest habitats for profits! That would be a MAJOR BLOW to our planet’s struggling ecosystems and would worsen the biodiversity crisis we’re seeing all over the globe. More than ONE MILLION species are at risk of being wiped out by human activity and the ecological chaos it’s unleashing! |
These attacks on the ESA didn’t come out of thin air. The Trump administration went all out to weaken this critical law in a dead giveaway to his corporate buddies. The blood of innocent animals is on its hands! But corrupt GOP politicians don’t seem to care how many wolf pups and baby bears are MURDERED because of their anti-environment schemes, as long as their extremist supporters and friends in Big Oil stay happy. Tearing down the ESA proves that they’re also willing to risk destroying everything it stands for: our forests, our national clean water supply and our LAST CHANCE to address the climate crisis! |
So you see, this is the WORST possible moment to fall short of our goal. We MUST ramp up our efforts to stop dirty industries from wreaking havoc on vital habitats and pushing ecosystems to collapse. That fight gets even harder if we lose the Endangered Species Act and the law shifts in favor of Big Oil! |
Please, don’t let our goal extension go to waste. Every dollar you give now supports our work to protect our fragile planet and the treasured species we share it with. Rush your membership gift of $15 or more now, in service of Endangered Species Day, to help Friends of the Earth Action protect our wildlife, communities and the only Earth we’ll ever get. |
