Florida Bears Are In Danger - Act now!

A new bill filed in Florida will remove penalties for anyone that kills a black bear and claims self-defense. 

If this bill passes, it will create a loophole that allows poachers and people that don't like bears to kill them with no regard or fear of prosecution.

HB 1487, the "Taking of Bears" bill, would authorize the killing of bears in self-defense, "without permit or authorization; provides an exemption from penalties; requires taking to be reported to FWCC; prohibits a person from possessing, selling, or disposing of taken bears or their parts; requires FWCC to dispose of taken bears."

Find your Florida Representative at the link below and tell them you DO NOT support HB 1487, the "Taking of Bears."
