Caught In A Trap!

The Issue

Under current regulations, trapping is perfectly legal in the State of Maine. This unfortunately puts animals at risk, including threatened and endangered species. One such species is the lynx.

Please take a moment to send a letter into the State of Maine and urge them to ban the use of trapping.
