Colorado’s recent reintroduction of wolves was a victory for these majestic creatures. Yet, one state away in Wyoming, anti-wildlife extremists and politicians have declared war on wolves’ lives – including taking full advantage of Wyoming’s ruthless “shoot on sight” policy. We can only hope that the defenseless Colorado wolves don’t go venturing over state lines. Wolves can’t see those lines. And wildlife can’t vote. They need our voices to fight the threats to their lives. This will be a watershed year for the future of saving wildlife, and we must be ready to defend and fight for wildlife and wild places no matter what we end up facing this November.

From attacking the Endangered Species Act to allowing fossil fuel companies access to millions of acres of public land, wildlife becomes a casualty of greed and the chase for power. That’s why we must be prepared for anything – including elected policymakers at the federal, state and local levels determined to destroy our most beloved species and critical habitats.
