This Thursday, NCWRC Commissioners will vote on whether or not to open up hunting in 3 designated bear sanctuaries.
We must remain strong in our fight to protect North Carolina bears living in the Pisgah, Panthertown-Bonas Defeat, and Standing Indian Bear Sanctuaries. Contact the NCWRC Commissioners and Governor Roy Cooper before Thursday's meeting. Include our petition and Helping Ashville Bears petition links in your emails so the NCWRC Commissioners and Gov. Cooper can see that the majority of their stakeholders are opposed to proposal G-13.
