Friend, how is it STILL completely LEGAL for mama bears and their defenseless bear cubs to be viciously slaughtered while they sleep peacefully in their dens?!
When the Trump administration removed critical bear protections in 2016, we knew that trophy hunters would recklessly massacre grizzlies in droves -- and they have. Roughly 50,000 GRIZZLY BEARS are LEGALLY hunted in the U.S. every year (which doesn’t even account for the unknown number that are poached illegally).
But now, 7 years later, grizzlies in the Northern Rockies states remain unprotected by the federal government, and it’s still permitted for ruthless trophy hunters to VIOLENTLY MURDER innocent bears. Friend, don’t you think it’s time that we END these savage bear hunts and federally protect this iconic species from EXTINCTION before it’s too late? TAKE ACTION NOW >>
Right now, Republican state lawmakers are coercing with hunting lobbyists to pass some of the most aggressive and cruel anti-bear legislation in history.
The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service is currently reviewing petitions submitted by these pro-hunting interests who are proposing the REMOVAL of existing grizzly bear protections.
Helpless grizzly bears are caught in the middle of this political crossfire, while being MERCILESSLY KILLED by trophy hunters in some of the most gruesome and inhumane ways imaginable.
We should be EXPANDING federal protections and STRENGTHENING efforts to recover this vulnerable species -- not gutting the remaining safeguards grizzlies have left and giving prize hunters the license to indiscriminately murder them.
There’s still a chance to SAVE these beloved animals from being completely wiped out by trophy hunters -- but only if we act immediately. SIGN NOW to urge FWS to do the right thing and protect grizzly bears! >>
Thank you for protecting bears,
Friends of the Earth
