Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit WildAlert.

The short explanation of this alert was:

It has been estimated that Idaho once was home to tens of thousands of bighorns. Now, there are only an estimated 2000 bighorns statewide. The only way to ensure recovery of bighorn sheep in Idaho is to stop contact between bighorns and domestic sheep that carry diseases that have ravaged bighorn populations.

Please tell the Forest Service that you support their efforts to provide disease-free habitat for bighorn sheep in Idaho's Hells Canyon and the Salmon River canyon.

Ask them to close all domestic sheep allotments and domestic sheep trailing routes that pose any risk of contact between bighorns and domestic sheep.

Please note:  Once you have taken action, your message is sent to the policy maker and may become a part of the public record.
