Help keep them safe from anti-wildlife extremists by joining today! ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ [header logo with donate button]( [Gray Wolves - Mom with cubs © John Pitcher/iStock]( Defender, We’re approaching a miraculous season for mother wolves, when the pups they gave birth to in spring can finally leave their dens and step out into the world. It’s taken a great deal of care and attention to get these young wolves who carry the future of their species with them as they grow to this point. But tragedy could strike in a matter of seconds: A strangulation snare, a bounty hunter’s bullet, even illegal poisons could cut their new lives short. This is the heartbreaking reality created by anti-wolf extremists, and it’s these tragedies that we’re working so hard to prevent! [Join us in defending future generations of gray wolves and other vulnerable wildlife before the month ends – your support is the key to their survival!]( Defender, these wolves are in our hearts as we approach the season where we send our own young ones out into the world as the school year begins. We all understand that our own children have a right to be protected and grow up in a world where they can have lives and families of their own. Sadly, however, anti-wolf groups are ripping away that deserved future from animals like gray wolves. Even the youngest pups have been targeted by bounty hunters who kill entire wolf families in their own dens – and new and more extreme laws have made these atrocities legal. We have the power to fight back and restore protections that will help wolves survive. You can deliver a better future to these animals by lending your support today!
