STOP ANTI-WOLF VIOLENCE: DEFEND WILDLIFE TODAY! All they found of her was her tracking collar, cut off and thrown into a tree. The illegal killing of a wolf from Yellowstone National Park has left wildlife advocates shocked and outraged. She was likely killed on Christmas Day, and wildlife officials are still looking for answers. Help us break the cycle of violence: Pitch in to our 3X Flash Match before tonight’s deadline to support urgent efforts to protect wolves in the Northern Rockies and beyond! Wolf kills in the area had already reached the quota, meaning any more were illegal. But that didn’t stop an individual from poaching this wolf, and then destroying and hiding her collar. As heartbreaking as this illegal killing is, too many wolves are still killed legally just steps outside of Yellowstone. Just this season, a beloved wolf known as Wolf 1478F from the Junction Butte pack was killed when she strayed into Montana – and several others have been killed crossing this invisible boundary. Yellowstone’s iconic wolves deserve better. Join us in demanding life-saving wolf protections by lending your support today – until midnight tonight, every dollar you can give will go 3X as far to create a better future for wildlife!
