USA: Oregon – Bad News For Wolves.

USA

SAV Comment – It seems as outsiders that those in power right across the country have basically got it in for wolves – and are intent on wiping them out whilst a band of better people are doing all to save them.  Learn from us in the UK; it is only when there are none remaining in your country and you cannot enjoy seeing and filming them that you then realise what a vital part they played in the national Ecosystem.  Efforts are being made here to re-introduce wolf into the UK.  People of the USA, Enjoy and respect what you have with your wolves – give them the protection they deserve.  And politicians; normally just a drop in the ocean trying to make a name for themselves; nothing more !

Save the wolf !!

Dear Mark,

Terrible news out of Oregon:

Just hours ago the state Fish and Wildlife Commission tossed aside the best advice of more than two dozen expert scientists and stripped endangered species protection from Oregon’s wolves. This betrayal is a declaration by the state’s powerfully connected livestock and hunting interests that wolves like OR-7 and his new family have no place in Oregon’s future.

There are roughly 83 wolves in the entire state, and they’ve returned to only a tiny fraction of their historic range. Without this critical legal protection, the state is tearing up the road map for their recovery. If Oregon follows the pattern we’ve seen in other states where protections have been taken away, this move paves the way for more killing of wolves in the future — maybe even a wolf hunt — and a reversal of fortune for the western wolf population at large. We must stop this.

You can help the Center for Biological Diversity put Oregon’s wolves back in their rightful place — on the state’s endangered species list — with a donation to the Center’s Predator Defense Fund.

Within days the Center will be in court challenging this disastrous decision. We’ll sue the wildlife commission for violating the requirements of Oregon’s Endangered Species Act. Meanwhile our activists will bring political pressure on Oregon’s elected officials, working all-out to re-establish the legal protection that these wolves need. The people of Oregon have spoken ― and they’re on our side. More than 90 percent of the 22,000 public comments the commission received on this vote were in favor of maintaining endangered species protection for wolves. We’re going to rally our wildlife-loving supporters to help overturn this decision.

Fighting a state government in court is expensive so we’ll need your help. Donate today to the Predator Defense Fund so we can take on Oregon’s bureaucracy and restore wolf protections.

It’s not just Oregon’s wolves — like OR-7 and his new family — in jeopardy with this decision. The safest way for wolves to return to California is through the Oregon wilderness. Without Oregon, the return of wolves all along the West Coast is endangered. Help us preserve these wolves by contributing to our Predator Defense Fund. Your donation will work both in court and out to preserve and protect this critical species and help them regain their lost range.

It’s not too late for Oregon’s wolves. We’ll get them their day in court, and we need you there with them.

For the wolves,
