I was going through my Bulk Email and I found this. Note: I didin't type this. I copyed this and pasted.
just got a note from my friends at Defenders of Wildlife telling me that federal officials are about to make a big mistake -- one that could lead to the killing of hundreds of wolf mothers, fathers and their babies in the Northern Rockies.
This could be the worst wolf massacre in the lower 48 states in decades. Please help save the wolves by sending a letter of protest to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Here's what's about to happen: this month, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is expected to propose stripping wolves of crucial Endangered Species Act protections across most of Wyoming and de-listing wolves in Idaho. Idaho is poised to kill up to 75% of the wolves living in the Lolo district of the Clearwater National Forest.
This proposal could allow the use of aerial gunning and other lethal control methods to kill as many as two-thirds of the wolves in Wyoming and as many as 54 of Idaho's 65 wolf packs!
Don't let them de-list the wolves:

As crazy as it seems, many misinformed citizens motivated by over-blown claims of livestock loss and elk hunting declines are urging federal officials to kill wolves. The wolves need you to speak up now! Help us make sure the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service hears from thousands of people like you and me who want to protect the wolves and their families.
In the last century, America's wolves were nearly hunted, trapped, poisoned and harassed to extinction. Neither Wyoming nor Idaho has addressed the core issues that once brought these magnificent animals to the brink of extinction, but now both states want to begin killing wolves again.
Until Wyoming and Idaho take decisive action to promote conservation, maintain adequate range for the wolves and reduce conflicts between ranchers and wolves, removing federal protections is a recipe for disaster.
Send your message now, and urge Fish and Wildlife Service chief Dale Hall to protect wolves in the Northern Rockies.
Thanks for helping today,
