DEFEND YELLOWSTONE WOLVES! She lived her life inside Yellowstone National Park, teaching generations of pups to hunt and carry on the pack. She was a mother and a leader. But her journey ended just outside the invisible boundaries of the park. Wolf 1331F was found caught in a trap, her body broken. Her pups never saw their mother again. Decades after the incredible reintroduction of gray wolves to Yellowstone, these majestic animals are still met with deadly violence the moment they cross out of the protected borders of Yellowstone. Dozens have died over the years, their packs shaken by the loss of key members. This cycle of killing must end. Defenders is pushing to keep wolf protections in place and expand them where wolves face the most extreme persecution – you can help us succeed by becoming a Wildlife Guardian today!

Even as wolves are hunted and trapped in outrageous numbers throughout the Northern Rockies – and being killed just outside of Yellowstone – the situation for gray wolves nationwide could soon get much worse. Congress is considering bills to rip away even more wolf protections, from a bill to delist wolves in protected areas of Oregon and Washington to Rep. Boebert’s (R-CO) recent bill to gut remaining federal wolf protections. Too many wolves have already been killed because of our patchwork system of protections where wolves are only safe in some areas. If these latest attacks succeed, one thing is certain: Many gray wolves will die. Defenders isn’t giving up on wolves, and we know you won’t either! Sign up today to make a recurring contribution to save the lives of wolves and other animals at risk of extinction, and you’ll know that you’re doing your part to stop the killing and to help America’s animals survive and thrive! BE A WILDLIFE GUARDIAN TODAY Thank you for honoring Yellowstone wolves with your gift, and for giving all of our beloved wildlife a better future. Sincerely, Mike Senatore SVP, Conservation Programs Defenders of Wildlife P.S.: The danger goes beyond wolves - so many animals depend on our help for survival.
