Happy birthday, America!
We live in a beautiful country, and one of the things we've done best is preserving so much natural splendor.
Earlier this week, we asked supporters to share a photo of a wild place that's special to them. Here are some of our favorites:
"Look closely at nature. Every species is a masterpiece, exquisitely adapted to the particular environment in which it has survived. Who are we to destroy or even diminish biodiversity?" - Edward O. Wilson
Our country has snow-capped mountains, crashing ocean waves, wildflower fields, ancient forests, and more.
The 250th is the perfect time to celebrate the wild places that make America so special.
Tell us in the replies: What's one beautiful wild place you love?
Cyanide bombs don’t belong where we live, hike and play.
Our fiscal year ends tonight. We’ve set a goal of raising $30,000 by midnight tonight to expand our work to protect wolves and our natural world. Join our work: https://t.co/yVA9XhPuU1
When left to thrive, life in a wolf pack can be social, adventurous and playful, embarking on group hunts to feed the whole family or experiencing moments of serene stillness on starlit nights.
That’s the life we think is worth protecting.
In the week ahead, we're sending more than 30,000 petition signatures to the Bureau of Land Management, calling for the agency to restore its ban on cyande bombs. It's not too late to add your name:

There could be hope for wolves. Legislation in Congress would make it illegal to intentionally harm wolves with snowmobiles on federal lands. Will you urge your U.S. House representative to support the Snowmobiles Aren’t Weapons Act today? https://t.co/pmQGrG3pTp

1 billion birds die of building collisions each year. Tell your U.S. representative: Support the Federal Bird Safe Building Act:

"Private timber companies and the Forest Service have been dousing hundreds of thousands of acres of the state’s forests in the herbicide, especially areas affected by wildfires."

In Wyoming, wolves are run down and killed using snowmobiles.
This cruel and inhumane practice is called “wolf whacking” -- and somehow, it’s still legal.
Tell your U.S. House representative: It's time to end "wolf whacking" for good.

A new provision slipped into a must-pass spending bill would erase federal protections for wolves -- opening the door to nationwide wolf hunts.
Tell your U.S. House representative: Don't put thousands more wolves in the crosshairs.
