Activelids- “Best kind of Wolves...DEAD” - From an anti-wolf Facebook page This is what we’re up against, and we desperately need your help. Only hours remain to have your tax-deductible year-end gift to Defenders of Wildlife matched dollar-for-dollar, up to a total of $100,000. Won’t you do it for the wolves? -Jamie Only Hours Left to Have Your Gift Doubled After 20 years of slow recovery in the Northern Rockies, Idaho has pulled out all the stops to drive wolves back to the brink. $30 becomes $60 $50 becomes $100 $100 becomes $200 $250 becomes $500 Help Defenders prepare for the tough battles ahead! Dear Activelids, As you read this, there’s a good chance a wolf is dying somewhere in Idaho. After 20 years of slow recovery in the Northern Rockies, Idaho has pulled out all the stops to drive wolves back to the brink. Idaho is ground zero for wolf hatred - but it’s not the only source of danger.  Help us begin 2015 from a position of strength with a generous year-end contribution to Defenders of Wildlife. And from now until midnight, your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $100,000! When the 114th Congress convenes next week, we’re expecting an unprecedented assault on imperiled wildlife, conservation laws and funding. In fact, this could turn out to be the most anti-wildlife Congress ever. As you may know, next month also marks an amazing milestone for wolves. It’s the 20th anniversary of the first wolf reintroduction to the Northern Rockies. Until January 1995, the western Lower 48 was almost a wolfless world. Thanks to supporters like you, Defenders helped change that. Please donate today and your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to a total of $100,000! You and I have come too far to see the gains of the last two decades wiped out by greed, ignorance and hatred. We’ve seen what a wolfless Lower 48 looks like - we have already lived in a nation where wolves were pushed to the brink of extinction - and we’re not going back! This is a defining moment for wolves and the imperiled wildlife you love. We need you more than ever. Won't you make your generous year-end gift now?
