This is from the Aiden Forum, I feel that more people need to see it-
Anybody interested in saving the wolves in Greater Yellowstone?
The Bush administration has stripped wolves in Idaho and Montana of their Endangered Species protection therefore making it perfectly legal to kill them and all this despite the fact that wolves should still be on the endangered list. As well as this wolf pups are currently dying en masse from an unkown disease so this comes at a bit of a bad time to say the least.
Thye tried this last spring and 110 wolves were killed in as many days before a number of conservation groups took them to federal court and won the case to overturn the decision and so they're now trying again.
If anyone is interested in helping out then here are a couple of links to the NRDC website with some more and probably better expressed information: www.nrdcactionfund.org/campaigns/wildlife/save-endangered-gray-wolves.html
