🆘Endangered species are crying out for help🆘

4X match ends tonight! ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ [Red Wolf Stare © Rebecca Bose/Wolf Conservation Center]( Defender, I need to share these numbers with you. Please don’t look away. These are some of our county’s most critically endangered species. These are how few may still survive in the wild: [[WILDLIFE SOS]: Only a few hours left to contribute to our Save Our Species Response Fund and have your gift MATCHED 4X to fight for our imperiled wildlife.]( [QUADRUPLE YOUR IMPACT FOR ANIMALS]( And the list of endangered species goes on… there are more than 2,000 endangered or threatened species in the United States today. Today is Endangered Species Day. Can red wolves, ocelots, panthers, and whales count on you to hear their cry for help? The Endangered Species Act is absolutely critical to the survival of these animals – but the law itself is facing extinction. At this historic moment, the ESA should be strengthened and expanded, not gutted. But that’s exactly what’s happening – extremist pro-extinction lawmakers are pushing legislation that would dismantle the ESA, starve it of funding, and doom countless species. We are on the verge of a 6th mass extinction, with species being lost up to 1,000 times faster than normal because of human activities. We cannot let extremists gut the ESA. [Donate to our Save Our Species Response Fund before midnight tomorrow, and your life-saving gift will be matched 4X to fight for the ESA and every animal that relies on it.]( Across the country, Defenders and our members are mobilizing to protect wildlife. Our experts and advocates are hard at work in court, on Capitol Hill, and in communities like yours to protect and restore imperiled animals. Behind each of these numbers is the face of a unique and irreplaceable species. We will not let anti-wildlife politicians gut the ESA and doom our nation’s wildlife. [This is an SOS for wildlife - unless we take action, these animals could disappear forever.
