A Note From Travis:

As we begin a new year with a new Congress and Presidential administration, I want to highlight the impact Wildlife Ambassadors like you make. In 2024 alone, your support advocated for the expansion of protected lands and habitat, prevented development in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, and worked to preserve the most effective conservation law ever passed in America, the Endangered Species Act. Your commitment made a difference across the country, and it is needed now more than ever.

On behalf of everyone at Defenders of Wildlife, thank you for your generosity and leadership as we confront what is shaping up to be a challenging time for threatened species and habitats across the country.
