Yellowstone's Buffalo In Danger
Last winter, more than 1,400 wild buffalo that ventured outside of Yellowstone National Park in search of food were rounded up and killed. Now, with winter here, and only 3,000 buffalo left in Yellowstone, another "capture and kill" season could decimate the population.
The heartbreaking video footage of last winter's deadly roundup of Yellowstone's wild buffalo shows why we must act immediately to prevent a recurrence.
Your donation will help mobilize the public against the Bush Administration's "capture and kill" policy while there's still time to save hundreds of buffalo from slaughter this winter.

Speak Out for Wolves!
In its final days, the Bush Administration is once again targeting Northern Rockies' gray wolves for slaughter. Its new "License to Kill" plan could lead to the massacre of hundreds of wolves in Greater Yellowstone and central Idaho.
Tell the Bush Administration to call off the guns and maintain strong federal protection for wolves:

PROTECT THE OCEANS!
Tell California officials to establish a network of marine protected areas!
California's Fish and Game Commission is considering the adoption of a preferred plan that could include a network of "underwater parks" along the coast between Half Moon Bay and Point Arena.
Please tell the Commission to strengthen the preferred plan and create a strong network of marine protected areas.

Utah's Wilderness Under Attack
Despite national opposition and protest messages from 148,000 NRDC Action Fund activists, the Bush Administration proceeded with its December 19th auction of Redrock canyonlands in Utah to oil and gas companies. On the same day, our partner organization -- NRDC -- won a reprieve for the wildlands when the administration agreed not to issue the leases until a federal court hears our case in January. While NRDC fights in court, we will continue calling on President Bush and President-elect Obama to reverse this disastrous giveaway of our natural heritage.

Tell Congress to Pass Tough Global Warming Legislation!
As the world¡¯s leading global warming polluter, America has an obligation to act now to avert the most catastrophic outcomes. Scientists are telling us that a rise of more than two degrees Fahrenheit threatens to trigger the irreversible melting of the Greenland ice sheet, a 20-foot rise in sea levels, and the extinction of innumerable species. Join us in calling on Congress to pass legislation that will cut our nation¡¯s global warming pollution 25% by 2020 and 80% by 2050.
