![]() Mother Jones Reader, Last year, Montana hunted down and killed 297 wolves.1 To you and I, it was a heartbreaking slaughter. But to the state's leaders, it didn't go nearly far enough. Now, the state has opened a new, even more aggressive hunting season. Their goal: Killing a shocking 458 wolves in just a few short months.2 Tell Montana Governor Greg Gianforte: End the wolf hunts. Hundreds of thousands of wolves once roamed what became the United States. Today, just a few thousand survive across the entire Lower 48. In Montana, there are as few as 920 surviving in the wild -- and this year's hunt could see half of them killed. Each individual hunter will be allowed to kill as many as 30 wolves between now and mid-March.3 This is the same kind of industrial-scale, heartless slaughter that once pushed wolves to the brink of extinction in the Lower 48. Add your name: It's time to end Montana's wolf hunts. Thank you for speaking up for wolves, The Environmental Action team |
