About this Petition Petition Letter

A senitor in the US is trying to do the unthinkable. Check this out...

Using helicopters, poison gas and other barbaric methods, the U.S. Wildlife Services agency plans to eliminate beautiful, iconic gray wolves. And we need you to help put a stop to it.

The killing is planned despite this summer's ruling by a federal court to restore Endangered Species Act protections for Greater Yellowstone and Northern Rockies wolves. Wildlife Services agents - the government's wildlife killing experts - are planning to kill hundreds of wolves in the region.

The federal Wildlife Services agency has simply gone too far - and we need your help to rein them in before they kill a single wolf.

Please take action now. Urge Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to nix the agency's plan to expand their wolf-killing role in Idaho.

The federal Wildlife Services agency is planning to work with Idaho officials to kill up to 80% of the wolves in central Idaho by land and from the air. Their plan also includes killing entire packs - including gassing helpless wolf pups and their mothers in their dens - and surgically sterilizing alpha wolf pairs.

All this despite the fact that wolves in the region are protected by federal law.

Speak out now and urge Secretary Vilsack to put the brakes on this awful plan - before the government-sponsored killing starts.

There are proven non-lethal techniques that can help ranchers co-exist with wolves and other native wildlife. We must stop Wildlife Services from dragging wolf management back to the brutal and archaic practices of the past.

Thank you for taking action,

Wolves Just Coming Back From the Brink of Extinction; They Need Our Help!

Greetings,

The federal Wildlife Services agency (a branch of the U.S. Department of Agriculture) is the primary wolf-killer in the United States -- and now wants to expand their wolf-killing operations… even in the face of a court ruling restoring protections to these iconic animals.

Wildlife Services plans to work with Idaho officials to eliminate up to 80 percent of the wolves in central Idaho by land and from the air. Their plan also includes killing entire packs -- including gassing helpless wolf pups in their dens -- and surgically sterilizing alpha wolf pairs.

This actually makes me feel sick to my stomach. Aren't there enough animals that MAN has enhilated, made extinct? Time to stop. They've been driven from their normal homes by MAN; but to litterally kill them from planes and the like with 'gas' and God knows what else.

PLEASE I'M BEGGING YOU, LEAVE THESE MAGNIFICENT ANIMALS ALONE.

SENATOR: How would you like it if some one was to put anyone in your family tree on a "HIT LIST"?
As that is what you will be doing.
I own a wolf hybrid and they're great animals.
