Stop CO Parks and Wildlife from killing bears

The Issue

Recently, Colorado Parks and Wildlife killed four bears in one day in Durango Colorado. They claim humans are first priority and that they hate euthanizing the bears. I feel that it may be impossible to keep humans from feeding animals, but I know there are different options for these bears. We need to come together and ask Colorado Parks and Wildlife to choose a more humane path. Relocation! How can we help them, funds, volunteers? Sanctuaries? We have to stop killing the bears!  We must defend the bears!

 

I saw this on another petition, "Every year, bears that wander into developed areas are needlessly shot, not because they pose a threat, but because there is a lack of an experienced and coordinated response." They took the words from our mouths.
