Annisa,
Montana's government has given hunters the go-ahead to slaughter as many as 558 wolves this season — the largest number in recent history. Even worse, it's given permission to individual hunters to trap or kill as many as 30 wolves per person. This even impacts wolves living near the famous Yellowstone National Park!
Wolves in the U.S. Northern Rockies region were protected under the Endangered Species Act until 2011. But now, with those protections gone, Montana officials apparently are giving hunters exactly what they want.
These animals are considered a "keystone species," meaning they're essential for the ecosystems and food chains around them. Without wolves maintaining a stable population, whole biosystems can be thrown out of whack. This trickles down to even impact the literal grasses and other foliage!
Even worse, Montana's own agency for Fish, Wildlife, and Parks (FWP) released data showing that this new hunting and trapping policy could reduce the wolves' populations to below the level that is considered "sustainable" — in less than a year.
Slaughtering wolves just to appease greedy, self-centered hunters is grotesque and cruel. We must speak out for these wild animals! They have a right to live! Sign the petition to demand that Montana immediately reverse its new wolf-hunting policy and instead instate full protections for these majestic creatures!
