There is a war raging and the Wolf is the only looser.
If all the number of people who read White Wolf Page find the site to comment on De listing and fill out the spaces asked to oppose this we could maybe turn this around.
Great numbers would show the people involved that we are not fooling.
Mean while even tho most do not want to see or hear about it, atrocity's of unbelievable amounts are being rained down on the Wolf.
If you want it to stop we must all voice that this is unacceptable.
We are the majority that do not want this to happen.
But if you do nothing to help then you may just see the Wolf go Extinct in the lower 48 states in our lifetime.
The Mexican Wolf is already there at critically endangered .
If you really love Wolves.

The de listing has been wrong from the start.
Show them you know this is wrong.

Respect the Wolf and let it have it`s place in the order of Life ! This World has room for all if we learn to Live WITH one another instead of Pushing or Killing off everything that stands in our way , or that we don`t Understand !
Great quotes describing the greatness of this creatur! It's a pity that in a country that stands for the rights of any living thing, the wolf is considered unworthy of that. I am signing petitions, adopted a pack and have become a member for years to help and I hope many join me to protect and respect such beautiful animal animal. I wonder why Florida hasn't considered killing all alligators??
