Dear Andrew,

Thank you for taking the time to sign our petition to save sea turtles. With your help, we can end the ongoing deaths of loggerheads
and other imperiled sea turtles.

I want you to know that your comments have been received and we will deliver them to officials at the National Marine Fisheries
Service on or before March 1st.

In the meantime, if you would like to do more to help us protect sea turtles, please forward the message below to at least three of
your friends to encourage them to take action to safeguard the lives of imperiled sea turtles. With your help, we can reach our goal
of collecting 40,000 comments in favor of an emergency suspension of the bottom longline fishery in the Gulf of Mexico and show
federal officials that there is broad public support for immediate action to protect our imperiled sea turtles.

With Gratitude,

Bob and the rest of the Defenders of Wildlife team
