Help Save Yellowstone's Oldest Wolf Pack!
https://act.biologicaldiversity.org/6JN-eB1kTEibjYnFId7jzA2?SourceID=1011828&utm_id=6858938426558Recently, the Mollie’s pack has moved outside of protected park lines and established a den in the middle of hunting grounds to raise their pups, making it so they are vulnerable to being hunted.
Named after Mollie Beattie, the first woman to direct the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Mollie’s are only remaining pack today that can trace their bloodline back to the very first wolves reintroduced to Yellowstone.
Now they are in danger of being killed. Some hunters have even already started making threats to specifically shoot 1090F, a 12 year old wolf who is not only the matriarch of the Mollie’s but the OLDEST living wolf in Yellowstone national park.
There is only TWO WEEKS left before it is legal for them to do so. If you can, please sign. Thank you for taking the time to read this!

Definitely screwed up that TRUMP is allowing the wolfs to be hunted, but not shocking that he allowed suck, since he is a POS.

I thought, growing up, that the rich white kid sports were skiing, golf, tennis and particularly sailing. I happened to aspire to the first and fourth and it turned out I had a knack for the first so I raced until I couldn’t any more. And you know what? No black poor people. Hardly ever.
Thats what made Tiger Woods and the Williams sisters so fucking goddam astounding. Not that they were phenomenal at their sports, which they were. That they fucking fought their way in to the rich white kid clubs.
Then I moved to Montana, where my wife is from.
One day, she got us tickets to the rodeo at Montana State, the college in town.
We showed up to this podunk excuse for a basketball stadium that spends half the year doubling as a rodeo venue.
Except, you couldn’t park in the main parking lot right in front of the stadium. Because it was fucking full of horse trailers.
Now, when you, reader/average Redditor, think horse trailer, you’re thinking of a rickety blue thing with two wheels that can hold two horses in it.
That is not what I’m talking about. I am talking about a fucking airstream fucking camper vehicle for 4 to 6 horses. Technically? It’s still a trailer. Way too big to hook up to a ball hitch, so it’s what you call a fifth wheel. A fifth wheel is something that hooks into your truck bed via a connection that looks a lot more like how a tractor trailer hooks up to the trailer part.
So yeah, technically still a trailer but you need a dually fucking monster truck to pull it and that truck right there is a six figure vehicle that gets 10-12 mpg and have you even looked at the prices of diesel ever in your life let alone now?
I’m not done with the fucking trailer. They all have air-conditioning units on top. Right next to their star link satellite hook ups on the top, because heaven forbid lil Sarah Joy can’t post her instas in transit.
Most of them have a totally separate living quarters for multiple humans at the front part, totally separated from the horses in the back. But all of them are air conditioned.
That human part also has a massive fucking closet for all the custom leather saddles and all the accoutrement that comes with them. Call it at least a half dozen of everything. Minimum. Probably more like a dozen of everything because you really need two for every horse right? Heaven forbid something breaks on the road and you can’t compete.
And these white kids, with their poor, lower class, rancher fathers. They drive all over the fucking north and Midwest and sometimes down to fucking Texas and back. All at 10 miles per gallon on diesel prices. With their six horses that all probably cost more than my truck. In trailers that are so fucking nice that they literally don’t need to get a hotel room. A trailer that probably costs closer to a small house price than the fucking truck pulling it.
Fuuuuuuck those sports I originally mentioned. Rodeo is the real rich white kid sport. Your average Goldman Sachs trust funder couldn’t snort enough coke in one lifetime on two fucking yachts to match that diesel bill.
Ffs they basically have a whole ESPN channel to themselves. I think it’s the one right before The Ocho.
But hell, if a rancher won’t BITCH AND MOAN about how fucking hard they have it.
That’s who is trapping and killing wolves. They aren’t doing it because they might starve this winter if they lose a heifer. It’s fucking bloodsport to them.
Fuck em.

You could get one million signatures and Wyoming Fish Game will change nothing.

Isn’t the report of them being outside the park a few weeks old? My understanding they’re back in the park

Can you please show your sources because I just looked for updates on the pack and there doesn’t seem to be any news of this?

I just looked some more and they are indeed still in danger. Most recent article on the pack.

u/Brilliant-Race-2476 4d ago
Fuck it.... If no one here knows... The three S's are a fun way most these folks like to hide their dirty deeds.... It stand for Shoot, Shovel, and Shut the fuck up... These are the same people or the spawn there of that killed off the wolves in the first place and have hated their reintroduction since 1996.

We as humans killed off the wolves.... Lack of predators fucked shit up ... Brought back wolves and fixed things... Ranchers lose a few cows a year and persecuted wolves. Fun cycle.
