69 Wolves Were Killed

One Wolf Killed Every Day


At least 69 wolves were killed in the first 61 days after the Bush administration eliminated federal protections for wolves.

That's more than one wolf killed every day -- it's time for a better plan.

The need for a nationwide wolf recovery plan couldn't be greater.

State officials plan to kill as many as 70% of the wolves in the Greater Yellowstone region. And after years of effort, just over 50 wild wolves can be found in Arizona and New Mexico.

That's why our partners at Defenders of Wildlife and their allies have filed a formal petition with the Fish and Wildlife Service calling for a national wolf recovery plan -- and you can help make this ambitious plan a success.

The states legally could kill down to a total of 300 wolves," says Doug Honnold, a lawyer for Earthjustice. "We could have 1,200 wolves killed before the federal government would say relisting this population is appropriate. People have worked so hard to promote wolf recovery, and just as we have victory within our grasp, or approaching our grasp, we're throwing it away and heading in the opposite direction."

Please send a message to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service right now and urge federal officials to adopt a national wolf recovery strategy.

Help ensure a lasting future for America's wolves.

Contributor's Note

Comment on petition site:
Humans do not have the right to permanently dominate and abuse the homes of so many wolves as well as living creatures, and wildlife habitats.

I think its a great plan we can act now instead of waiting until its too late and regretting it. Preserving our wildlife is very important! There is a pretty fair population of wolves in the Northern Portions of the Great Lake States of Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan.

They are the most misunderstood animals in the world, and one of the most beautiful. I feel Wolves are beautiful and meaningful animals as well as all others and have more than a right to exist as we do. Wolves are an important life for the ecological system.

I strongly urge your agency to adopt the national wolf recovery plan put forth by Defenders of Wildlife and the Natural Resources Defense Council. The wolf is a necessary top predator. I had a dog that was part wolf and she was very special. Wolves are intelligent creatures that never take more prey than they need to survive.

Please help to protect these magnificent creatures! Wolves are awesome, killing animals isn't. I support a forward-looking national wolf recovery plan because without it, wolves will become extinct. I love wolves.

Certainly there is something to be done that lies somewhere between "endangered" and killing one wolf per day until they are back on the endangered list. I support this plan because God put every animal on this earth for a reason. We have to help the wolves. Wolves are beautiful creatures and deserve to be protected.

I believe every animal deserves a fair chance, and a second chance. Wolves are a living natural resource. Wolfs are a natural predator of deer and other smaller game. Don't we have enough extinct animals in our planet?
