Stop the Invasion of the Exotic Wildlife!

Each year, pythons and hundreds of millions of other non-native wild animals are imported into the U.S. with no good way of screening out species that can harm native ecosystems or threaten human health.

To stem the exotic wildlife invasion, Defenders of Wildlife is calling on Congress to enact legislation that would provide for crucial screening of wildlife imports to reduce the risk of harm to our native wildlife, wild places and human health -- and pass legislation to regulate the import and interstate transportation of pythons and other large constrictor snakes that threaten native ecosystems.

Urge Congress to stop the exotic wildlife invasion! Please fill out the form below to send a message to your U.S. senators and representative.

Thank you for taking action!
