SAVE THE WOLVES FROM SPORT HUNTING Oct. 8, 2014 Whoever kills the most wolves wins. That’s the bottom line of a planned predator-killing competition in Idaho. Prizes would go to whoever kills the most wolves, coyotes and other predators. To add insult to injury, this “killfest” would take place on publicly-owned land, some of which is being considered for wilderness status! If you care about wolves and other predators as much as I do, please help by sending an emergency donation to Defenders of Wildlife to protect wolves and other imperiled wildlife. A “hunters’ rights” organization has formally requested permission to hold this despicable contest every year for the next five years. The proposed event would take place every winter, when wolves and other wildlife are at their most vulnerable - out foraging for food in the snow and bitter cold. This is not hunting; this is simply mass-killing for fun based upon hatred and fear. Please support our campaign to stop this killing spree. With your help: We’re fighting in Washington, D.C. to stop the proposed delisting of nearly all gray wolves in the Lower 48; We’re on the ground in local communities to dispel ignorance and counter anti-wolf propaganda and to build political opposition to vicious anti-wolf bills; And we’re working with ranchers, private landowners and others to continue to lead the effort to implement non-lethal strategies so that wolves and livestock can coexist. Events like this competition are the kinds of barbaric extermination era tactics that drove wolves to the brink in the first place! This is not modern wildlife management, and it has no place in society. Please make an emergency donation today! Thank you for all you do. Sincerely, Jamie Rappaport Clark, Defenders of Wildlife Jamie Rappaport Clark President Defenders of Wildlife P.S. I can assure you, Defenders will use every legal tool in its arsenal to ensure that this travesty does not take place - please donate today! fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/environment/plants_and_animals/news.php?q=1412784242
