"Silent auction over the weekend for two wolf necklaces. The proceeds will go to the Defenders of Wildlife who have initiated a lawsuit challenging the federal governments decision to remove protected species status from the Rockies Gray Wolf. From the Defenders of Wildlife page:
"On April 28, 2008 Defenders and 11 other conservation groups filed a federal court lawsuit challenging the federal government’s February decision to remove the northern Rockies gray wolf population from the list of endangered species. As of March 28, 2008, this has left wolf management in the hands of state agencies. Unfortunately, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming have stated their intention to kill many of the wolves living within their borders. The states' management plans could put wolves at grave risk, and do not guarantee the long-term survival of the species."
The wolf tooth necklaces will go to the highest bider, and the proceeds will be in support of this lawsuit. A booth will be set up that will provide information about the grey wolf and (Optional) my own relationship with this animal. Coyote tooth necklaces will be for sale directly.
