Please show your support for your well-known resident bald eagles and their young offspring (our national bird) , along with other wildlife of the Big Bear area, by not setting off fireworks this year. I saw how alarmed Jackie and Shadow were by two loud daytime gunshots earlier this season, and I am very concerned about how they (and their two fledglings) might respond to sustained fireworks at night. I urge you to forego the fireworks and celebrate in other ways that do not endanger their wellbeing. Thank you!
Susan supported: No Big Bear Lake Fireworks Show for the Safety of Sister Eaglets (Gizmo and Sunny)Fireworks aren't compatible with animals and nature. They frighten millions of animal every July. It would be heartbreaking if the eagle family or any family in the wild is forced to listen to ear shattering, stupid fireworks with no one to comfort them. Please ban them at BB Lake at least.
John supported: No Big Bear Lake Fireworks Show for the Safety of Sister Eaglets (Gizmo and Sunny)I actually was shocked to hear that a firework show was happening in the first place in Big Bear. Between the wildlife, and fire risk, this just seems outdated. We have to begin considering nature, even if it means a little less excitement.
There are other ways to celebrate the 4th of July, and with our national bird being a Bald Eagle, we can start by protecting those that call Big Bear home.
Ella supported: No Big Bear Lake Fireworks Show for the Safety of Sister Eaglets (Gizmo and Sunny)For the past 20 years we have been privileged to share our property with Florida black bears, with the understanding they were there first. We respect their habitat, have no desire to harm them, and know they have no desire to harm us. We can continue to live together and appreciate how blessed we are to have them in our world. There is no need to hunt them.
Ron supported: STOP THE FLORIDA BLACK BEAR TROPHY HUNT!!!We lived in the panhandle for a decade, of two different sides of the same preservation, and were lucky enough to see countless bears over the years. This proposal is heartbreaking. Seeing them in the wild was always a pleasure & something we still miss & talk about many years later. Please speak up & protect these beautiful animals!
Rebecca supported: STOP THE FLORIDA BLACK BEAR TROPHY HUNT!!!As a native Floridian, 1,000 humans moving into my state, daily, why kill the bears? We are encroaching on their habitat! If humans feel they’re a threat, don’t live near the forest!!!!! Use bear proof garbage cans! Personally, I feel that humans are encroaching on MY state! My great, great grandfather was 4th governor of Florida, Madison Stark Perry! Maternal grandfather was mayor of Wildwood for years, Richard Rector! Paternal grandmother was provost of Brevard County for years, Edna Carlile! The bears have the right to live here and not allow Trophy Hunters from killing them!!!!!!!’
