UEC Has a New Pro-Wolf Bumper Sticker:

Help UEC Bring Wolves Back to Utah

The great documentary film on wolves and cougars, Lords of Nature: Life in a Land of Great Predators, explores the role of top level predators in keeping ecosystems balanced and healthy. The film also examines how people can live with wolves and cougars.

UEC also has a few copies of the DVD available for purchase for $10 for anyone wanting to show it to friends and family at a house showing.

Add your voice to the hundreds that have already written a letter or postcard to Governor Gary Herbert supporting the return of wolves to Utah. Write to:
