This National Great Outdoors Month, take action to make public lands safer! Urge your representative to support the Refuge from Cruel Trapping Act to ban body-gripping traps from the U.S. National Wildlife Refuge System! https://t.co/6AH6iCxsag

Congress is trying to sneak a dangerous anti-wildlife rider into the budget. Sec 125 not only delists Gray Wolves based on politics instead of science—it includes a "no-court" clause blocking citizens from challenging it. Tell your Rep to oppose Sec. 125! https://t.co/IMWaW5bIE3

The U.S. is facing global conflict, rising costs, and a Congress that still can’t pass a budget on time.

Yet lawmakers keep finding time to target wolves.

Tell Congress to follow the science and oppose Section 125 of the Interior Approps bill at https://t.co/4Wy6SWqWF0.

Section 125 remains in the Interior Appropriations Bill after today’s markup.

This poison pill would force Gray Wolves off federal protections across most of the lower 48—and block the public from challenging it in court.

A glimpse inside Yellowstone’s Wapiti Lake Pack: one wolf asserts dominance over another—a normal part of pack life.

These displays help reinforce relationships, reduce conflict, and show the complex social language wolves use as family groups.

California just took an important step toward nonlethal coexistence. SB 1135, the California Wildlife Coexistence Act, passed the Senate and now moves to the State Assembly.

CA has a chance to lead with a science—based, nonlethal approach over fear-driven killing.

The Tongass National Forest is the last intact temperate rainforest on Earth.

Ancient trees—some 500 years old — rise so tall they vanish into the mist.

Bear cubs learn to fish in its streams.
Salmon return to the same rivers their ancestors used for millennia.
Eagles nest in old growth that took centuries to become what it is.

Three Indigenous nations — Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian — have called it home since long before this country existed.

17 million acres of Southeast Alaska.
It stores 20% of the carbon held across ALL U.S. forests.
It’s North America’s Amazon.

It’s National Forest Week.
And they’re about to clearcut it.

Secretary Rollins rescinded its protections last June. Trump signed an executive order stripping federal land protections further in May. Bloomberg Law reports the formal full repeal lands this summer.

9 million undeveloped acres lose protection overnight. Triple the timber-suitable acreage opens up.

11 tribal governments have fought for this forest’s survival. One of them said it plainly: “You cannot separate us from the land.”

How much old growth has to disappear before people finally call it irreversible?

Playful behaviors like pawing, chasing, and teasing are common among wolves and help strengthen social bonds within the pack

Coexist with coyote. Do not use poison to kill rodents which will result in a great disaster, ask Vermont.

A new study found that humans caused 65% of recorded Great Lakes Gray Wolf deaths, with illegal killing leading overall. When wolf hunting was allowed, legal killing became the top cause—but poaching stayed consistent.

The ESA was built on sound science— a foundation we must uphold. H.R. 845 & H.R. 1897 disregard this, prioritizing politics over science. Americans want our wildlife to thrive for future generations. Congress: REJECT these bills! #NoHR845 #NoHR1897 https://t.co/sOfmIQu1BP

@Treeoflife14051 @PhaedraXTeddy @peta @PetaIndia @AwbiBallabhgarh @MercyForAnimals @LionInCrisis When it comes to animal cruelty the U.S. is right up there with all the others...

[Team Wolf @teamwolf_org]

Gray Wolf protections should be guided by science—not political bargaining. But Section 125 in the Interior funding bill would force the delisting of wolves and block court challenges.
