Because diversity has intrinsic value, and because its loss impoverishes society, we work to secure a future for all species, great and small, hovering on the brink of extinction. We do so through science, law, activism and creative media, with a focus on protecting the lands, waters and climate that humans, other species and all communities need to survive and thrive.We want those who come after us to inherit a world where the wild is still alive.POSITION SUMMARY The Southeast Campaigner will use their skills to plan and execute strategic campaigns focused on the protection of red wolves and other key species in the Southeast.
