The Utah Senate has passed legislation that would require that wolves migrating into Utah be killed or relocated.
The bill has been approved by the state House of Representatives and requires the approval of Governor Gary Herbert.
Tell Governor Herbert to kill the bill, not Utah’s wolves. Go to http://governor.utah.gov/goca/form_comment.html.
Utah Environmental Congress recognizes that wolves are important for healthy ecosystems. Wolves are native to Utah and we want them back.
Utah is a critical link between the wolves that already exist in the Yellowstone region and other areas that still need wolves - like Colorado and the Southern Rockies. Recently wolves have been reported near Grand Junction, Colorado. If those reports are confirmed, wolves may migrate to Utah by traveling west along the Book Cliffs. We may hear wolves howl in the Book Cliffs and Uinta Mountains sooner than we think, if they aren’t shot first!
Don’t let Utah become a deathtrap for wolves.
Speak out today for Utah’s wolves -- send a message to Governor Herbert:
