The Issue

To pass the Bill S1918 

Conserving Ecosystems by Ceasing the Importation of Large (CECIL) Animal Trophies Act

This bill amends the Endangered Species Act of 1973 to apply the Act's prohibitions on importing or exporting species listed as threatened or endangered to species proposed to be listed as well.

This bill was assigned to a congressional committee on Aug 3, 2015, which will consider it before possibly sending it on to the House or Senate as a whole.

We have been bullied by these trophy hunters for over a century ! What about our rights to keep wildlife alive and ensure their existence as long as humanly possible ! It's our turn to have a say in this matter and we choose to Stop Trophy Hunting. It has no value to society and only perpetuates greed, narcissism, and violence! Please help to keep the worlds wild animals alive by banning trophy hunting. The majority of the American people Do Not Support Trophy Hunting and it's are right to oppose it.

Cecil was the lion that woke the world and we want change before we lose all our precious animals senseless killing. Trophy Hunting does not help the environment or conservation. As One of the leaders of the world we must protect the animals! This bill will allow even VULNERABLE animals to be protected and has no loopholes for hunters to be able to import/export trophy animal parts. Thank you!
