Looking back and preparing for what’s ahead.

Once again, we’re on the cusp of a new year. As we count down to 2019, we get to reflect on the year’s highlights and hardships and prepare for what’s ahead.

We faced some extraordinary challenges in 2018, none bigger than saying goodbye to Atka after he died peacefully in his sleep on September 22.

Although losing Atka leaves an enormous hole in our hearts, his larger-than-life influence on the world persists. His legacy lives on in an empowered public who will continue the fight to safeguard his wild kin. Atka taught us that each of us can make a difference, and all of us ought to try.

We know that we have our work cut out for us in the months and years to come, but like Atka, we’re not going to shy away from the tough challenges.

So as we close 2018, we thank you for your support and rededicate ourselves to our mission.

Atka worked to create a better world for wolves, and so will we.

See you in 2019!
