But there are still dangerous gaps in state
protections.
A California Court Said Gray Wolves Should Still Be
Protected Under the Endangered Species Act, But Some States Can Still Kill
Too Many Wolves

In a huge victory for gray wolves, a California
court just struck down the awful 2020 decision to remove their endangered
species protection status at the federal level. This is an amazing step
forward, but unfortunately, the areas where wolves are most under attack --
Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho -- are not included in this court decision.
Heartbreakingly and ironically, these states are also where the bulk of U.S.
wolves reside, and kill quotas can be as high as 90% of the already
vulnerable population.
Wolves in these states were actually officially
delisted in 2009, and it was left up to decision-makers at the state level
to manage and protect them. This has been devastating, resulting in
overhunting, breaches of Tribal nations' rights, and insidious loopholes
that allow the killing of wolves that cross state lines. On top of that, we
know that the Montana governor himself sidestepped the law for a chance to
murder a wolf in 2021. So how can we expect state legislatures to properly
manage wildlife populations when their leaders are so committed to illegally
killing innocent animals?
The recent California ruling was a crucial step in
the right direction, and still helps gray wolf populations overall. But we
must protect these innocent animals where they need it the most desperately,
and the best way to do that is by fully relisting them in every state under
the Endangered Species Act. Sign the petition now to put pressure on the
Department of the Interior to protect ALL gray wolves!
Thank you,

P.S. The recent decision to relist most states' gray
wolves under the Endangered Species Act does not go far enough. Sign the
petition to protect all gray wolves.
