Help Protect Wildlife on National Wildlife Refuges in Alaska

The Issue

Help protect wildlife on National Wildlife Refuges in Alaska!  The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)   is accepting public comments on a proposed rule to end a series of cruel and egregious hunting methods and widespread predator control on Alaska’s wildlife refuges. Help protect bears, wolves, and coyotes by showing USFWS you support this proposal. 

At stake is an opportunity to limit or stop brown and black bear trapping, brown bear baiting, aerial gunning of bears, and the trophy hunting of black bears, wolves, and coyotes, as well as their cubs and pups, in their dens. Often times these animals are killed while nursing their young. These type of methods are unethical, unsporting, cruel, and  harm not only entire populations of animals, but also entire ecosystems.

Make your voice heard and tell USFWS you support this proposed rule!
