STOP THE UNNECESSARY WOLF KILLING

"In early February, employees from Wildlife Services -- the federal program under the Department of Agriculture -- gunned down 14 wolves from a helicopter in the Lolo region of Idaho's Clearwater National Forest
This ill-conceived mission helped carry out Idaho's plan to radically reduce the number of wolves to artificially boost game populations in the area.

The Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Inspection Service (APHIS) --
the federal agency in charge of Wildlife Services -- is asking the public to comment on their operations and budget. We need to let them know that killing wolves and other predators for boosting game population is expensive, unscientific and unnecessary.
Write a message to APHIS urging them to put an end to their participation in aggressive and unscientific wolf killing".
