**Take action for polar bears on the Take Action! page.
The Bush Administration has just handed down its long-awaited “License to Kill” rule. It’s the equivalent of a death sentence for hundreds of endangered gray wolves in Greater Yellowstone and across the Northern Rockies.We can still force the White House to call off the guns — before any shots are fired — but we must move quickly.
We’ve produced a powerful ad that is ready to run and spark nationwide opposition. But we must raise $150,000 to place it in the national edition of “The New York Times,” where it will alert both the public and Congress in time to stop the slaughter.
Read the full text of the ad — and help us run it.
Millions of Americans have no idea that the Bush Administration is planning to spend our tax dollars to slaughter hundreds of wolves — while they are still protected under the Endangered Species Act!
But with your help, millions of Americans will know within a matter of days.
At the very same time, our partner organization — the Natural Resources Defense Council – will be challenging the Bush Administration’s cold-blooded plan in federal court.
Together, we can block the slaughter — before it starts — but only if we act swiftly.
Help us give America’s wolves a fighting chance. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Frances Beinecke
President
