Hi,

I'm looking for general information on the following two wildlife
societies, (or a pointer to a more appropriate bb to ask this question):

	The Wilderness Society
	Defenders of Wildlife.

Sprint has a program that will donate some percentage of the $$ you send
them for telephone service to any one of a list of charitable organizations.
I need help deciding on the above two.

I'd like to know what the purpose of the above organization are 
and if there's anything else i should know about them before I pick
up a dart and just choose one.

I've tried my local zoo, but no one ever calls me back, or I get connected
with people who don't know anything.  I've tried the 1-800 operator
to see if there was a 1-800 on either of the two.  I don't have time
to take time off and go searching through my public library, so this is my
last stab and then I go for the darts...

Thanks for the info or the pointers!!
