 Happy Holidays! Thank you for helping us protect wildlife...
|
Season’s greetings, Brandon!
Each year at this time, I like to write dedicated Defenders supporters like you to thank you for all that you helped us accomplish for the wildlife that you and I care about.
This year, I thought we’d do something a bit different by showing you what an incredible difference you’ve made in 2008.
Please take a moment to check out some of the amazing ways you helped us protect wildlife in 2008�?/FONT>
With your support, Defenders of Wildlife helped stop planned wolf hunts in Greater Yellowstone, secured protections for America’s vanishing polar bears under the Endangered Species Act, saved imperiled wolverines from trapping plans and won dozens more victories for our wildlife this year.
Learn about some of the great victories you helped make possible this year on our new interactive map.
As proud as I am of our accomplishments in 2008, I know that the year ahead will be challenging. The incoming Obama Administration offers new opportunities to address important conservation issues that have been ignored (and in many cases made worse) during the past eight years under the Bush/Cheney Administration.
In 2009, Defenders of Wildlife will need your help to�?/STRONG>
-
End Governor Sarah Palin’s out-of-control wolf killing programs in Alaska;
-
Stop the outgoing Administration’s plans to once again green-light the slaughter of wolves in Greater Yellowstone and the Northern Rockies;
-
Reverse devastating eleventh hour regulations by the Bush/Cheney Administration that would gut the Endangered Species Act;
-
Pass legislation to help polar bears and other wildlife survive the threat of global warming;
-
And continue efforts on the ground, in the courts, in Congress and on the state and local levels to protect imperiled animals and the habitat they need to survive.
The accomplishments of this past year are just a preview of what we can do to safeguard wildlife for our children, grandchildren and future generations. Working together, I know that we can accomplish even more in the year ahead.
All the Best to You and Yours,
