Breaking News!!!! Center for Biological Diversity.. Wyoming has declared WAR on our Wolves. Please join the Center of Biological Diversity Predator Defense Fund... We are THEIR VOICE AT ALL COSTS WITHOUT OUR WOLVES OUR ECOSYSTEM WILL NOT SURVIVE AND WILL BE IN TOTAL CHAOS. All predator animals are very essential to the life of our ecosystem and our wolves especially. They are a very social animal and any death within their pack can and will shatter the family and can leave pups abandoned. If we continue to allow Wyoming to go rogue and allow trophy hunters to hunt for minimum monies, what other states will join the ban to exterminate all wolves and their young. EXTINCT IS FOREVER... WE AS A UNIT CAN STOP THIS USELESS SLAUGHTER!!!! Mahalo

Hi Tia, Thirty-three gray wolves have already been killed during hunting season in Wyoming — in addition to another 25 slaughtered across the state where wolves are considered "predatory animals." It's heartbreaking. Wolves are highly social, with deep bonds within packs. Each death shatters a wolf family, breaks up a breeding pair or orphans a litter of pups. The hunt continues — the state will allow 44 wolves to be gunned down this year in the "trophy hunting" zone alone. That's more packs devastated, more pups left on their own. In September 2014, a federal court ruling prompted by a lawsuit filed by the Center and allies restored federal protections to wolves in Wyoming. But earlier this year, that court victory was overturned and now the state has taken over wolf management. Ignoring science, Wyoming has declared open season on wolves. A dozen wolves were killed in the first 40 hours after the ban on hunting was lifted Oct. 1. Instead of being used as target practice for trophy hunters, gray wolves need to be protected and allowed to raise their families. And it's not just in Wyoming that wolves are in the crosshairs. Both Idaho and Montana have wolf-hunting seasons — in Montana it costs just $19 for a license to kill wolves. The job of wolf recovery is far from over. Today wolves eke out a living in less than 10 percent of their historic range. Without protection they may be hunted to extinction.                            No one fights harder to save wolves than the Center. We're the only group in the country battling to save every single U.S. wolf population. We know how to win in the courts and in the halls of power — but we can't stop the killing without you. Join our efforts to end the war on wolves by Joining the Center's Predator Defense Fund. For the wild,
