Southern Resident Orcas, iconic to the Pacific Northwest and frequenting Washington's Salish Sea, face a critical struggle for survival.

This endangered population made national headlines this summer after a newborn calf died, with its mother carrying the body for 17 days in apparent grief. A month later, a young female disappeared and is now presumed dead, further reducing the population to a mere 74 whales.

Recent remote camera footage shows the Togo wolf pack's breeding male with his two young pups. The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) plans to shoot him, which would leave his pups

Recent remote camera footage shows the Togo wolf pack's breeding male with his two young pups. The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) plans to shoot him, which would leave his pups vulnerable and his mate without a hunting partner.

Last week, the Center for Biological Diversity secured a temporary court order halting the culling. We are back in court this week, seeking to make that protection permanent.

Please donate to our Wolf Defense Fund to help keep the Togo pack safe: https://bit.ly/2PaJxHl. Media can request footage by emailing CenterVideos@BiologicalDiversity.org.

In *Fascism: A Warning*, former US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright draws on her experiences and diplomatic career to provide a personal examination of Fascism's 20th-century legacy and its impact today. She defines a Fascist as one who claims to speak for a nation, disregards others' rights, and uses violence to achieve goals.

Albright argues that Fascism presents a more virulent threat now than since World War II, with global democratic momentum reversing. Economic, technological, and cultural factors empower political extremes, and contemporary leaders like Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un employ tactics reminiscent of 1920s and 30s Fascists. This timely book offers crucial lessons to prevent repeating past errors.
