2. Tell Montana its Wildlife is Worth More Alive

3. Help Elephants Connie and Shaba

Connie and Shaba have been together for 30 years and have bonded intensely. They were kept from being separated in Tucson, AZ thanks to public outcry, but will be moved to the San Diego Zoo where they may be separated because they they are different species. Officials are predicting that they will each bond with their own species in San Diego, which has both African and Asian elephants, and should that happen one of the pair will be moved with the zoos other African elephant.

Send a letter to Tucson officials asking them to take the necessary steps to ensure that both Connie and Shaba will remain together.
