#trapping is inhumane. It betrays the respect, coexistence, and compassion we owe the wild—something Indigenous peoples have always understood—because #wolves are family, and we share this home with them, and we need #wildlife to thrive for our own survival too.
Every year in the U.S., millions of wild animals suffer in cruel #traps : steel-jaw leghold traps, snares, cable restraints, body-grip (#Conibear ) traps, and glue traps.

But all that changed in 2021, when Max ventured outside the park for the last time.

Not far from the border, a steel #trap snapped around his foreleg. In great pain, Max struggled, but he couldn't get away. Hours later, a human appeared and killed Max with his gun, even though Max was defenseless and wore a #Yellowstone tracking collar.

The biggest tragedy? Max's killer was #GregGianforte, the governor of #Montana and a passionate #TrophyHunter.

Save Whales From Entanglement and Death

Whales are vital for healthy ocean ecosystems. Sadly, trap fisheries entangle dozens of endangered humpback, gray, and blue whales off the U.S. West Coast every year. Take action to protect whales from dangerous fishing gear.

M-44s are intended to kill #coyotes, but they are indiscriminate. They have killed countless dogs and wild animals (including #EndangeredSpecies). They have also harmed a number of humans, even contributing to one man's death.

#Trapping is not "a tool in controlling predators”. It thins out packs, leaving them more likely to prey on livestock.
