Please join Project Coyote in protest of an indefensible coyote and wolf killing “derby” ironically scheduled on the 40th anniversary of the passage of the Endangered Species Act, our nation’s safety-net for wildlife, that brought wolves back from the brink of extinction.
Wolves need our help! A war continues against endangered wolves across the United States, a war that will gain deadly momentum if the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (FWS) proposal to remove federal protection for gray wolves is approved.
Although the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has postponed the public hearing on the proposal to remove ESA protection for most gray wolves, that won’t stop us from speaking out.
Speak out for wolves! Join wolf, carnivore, and wildlife conservationists throughout the nation to demand continued federal protections for the endangered and ecologically vital gray wolf.
Penning, the practice of confining coyotes and foxes in fenced enclosures and allowing packs of dogs to chase and often maul them for “sport” and “entertainment”— with little opportunity for protection or escape— is a cruel and vicious practice that is prevalent in Virginia and several other states.
New Mexico’s coyotes are depending on you to stand up against brutal killing contests that glorify killing them for killing’s sake, and which cast New Mexico in a terrible light.
