HELP END GOVERNMENT WOLF KILL PROGRAMS
Help make our work go further by making a donation and help support wolf education, research & campaigns. WeHowl is not set-up as an official registered charity or non-profit organization. It is run by individuals who are passionate about advancing wolf conservation, are committed to the cause, and who mainly volunteer their time and often pay fees out of pocket (e.g. website costs, printing, etc.). One reason for this is so that the founder can join in on the front lines of direct action when and where it is needed, without risking charitable status.
​
You can donate via e-transfer to sadieparrwolfpact@gmail.com
Shop for and wear one of our t-shirts or hoodies. Not only do part of the proceeds directly fund WeHowl wolf research, education and campaigns, but they help spread the message that we do not support Canada's unwarranted, indiscriminate and inhumane wolf killing programs.

HELP end aerial gunning
Oppose the action of killing wolves under the false guise of caribou recovery; demand an end to this wrongful and misguided practice.
​
These programs do not take into account the intrinsic value of wolves, nor the environmental and spiritual benefits that wolves provide. Wolves deserve respect, NOT aerial gunning. If governments are serious about protecting caribou and all species and ecological processes that require old forests, the first step is to stop destroying more of their essential habitat.

End tax-funded wolf kill programs in western Canada
​
In western Canada, wolves are chased by helicopters to exhaustion... and then shot. Far from 'clean kills', many individuals are wounded and abandoned to a slow and agonizing death. In Canada, this is 'wolf management'.
​
Contact the premiers of British Columbia and Alberta and demand an end to this wrongful and misguided practice. Let them know that you are 100% opposed to killing wolves as a method to aid caribou recovery:

HELP Ban Compound 1080
Reach out to Health Canada and Federal Ministers now and support a ban on this cruel & indiscriminate poison used on public and private lands. This change can:
i) help put an end to needless suffering,
ii) help reach Canada's biodiversity commitments,
iii) help prioritize safe, effective, non-lethal methods to prevent conflicts among livestock and native carnivores.
​
Here are great ways you can make some noise. Ask that we, as a society, transition to promote more ethical and responsible wildlife management and farming practices.
ACTION: SEND AN EMAIL TO THE FEDERAL GOVERMENT
In Canada, most wildlife management policies are under the jurisdiction of the province or territory, but the federal government is involved in authorizing the use of poisons to provinces/territories that apply for permits.
You can contact these government representatives directly asking that they make Canada POISON-FREE for wolves, coyotes, and all wildlife by banning Compound 1080:
​
Mark Holland
Federal Minister of Health
(authorizes poison use in Canada)
Email: hcminister.ministresc@hc-sc.gc.ca
Steven Guilbeault
Federal Minister of Environment and Climate Change
Email: ec.ministre-minister.ec@canada.ca
​
Lawrence MacAulay
Federal Minister of Agriculture and Agrifood
Email: lawrence.macaulay@agr.gc.ca,
​
Local and Provincial Government Representatives
​
Remember, they are there to help address public concerns.
Asking them to raise the issue at the provincial level is one of the best ways to provoke change.
​
ACTION: PRINT & MAIL A POISON-FREE POSTCARD
Easily reach Canada's Minister of Health,
Canada's Environment Minister, Alberta's Premier, your MP with the WeHowl Poison-free postcards.
​
Request that all registrations for the use of Compound 1080 be cancelled and that this poison be banned permanently.
​
