Wildlife Alert

Stop a Destructive Road
Steller's Eider (Photo: U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service)

The Izembek National Wildlife Refuge shelters tens of thousands of shorebirds, including the threatened Steller’s eider.

Call your Senator today and tell her to oppose a path of destruction through the Izembek National Wildlife Refuge.

Then tell us how your call went -- this important step will help us in our advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill.

Dear Tammy,

The Izembek National Wildlife Refuge is one of Alaska's most ecologically unique refuges, with lagoons, tundra and stunning mountain peaks. This incredible habitat is home to brown bears, wolverines, caribou and other wildlife.

But a proposed road would slice through the ecological heart of this special place, devastating fragile habitat and the wildlife that lives there.

Tammy, as a member of the Senate Energy and  Natural Resources Committee, your Senator, Blanche Lincoln, can defeat Ted Stevens’s and Lisa Murkowski’s costly and unnecessary bill that would blaze a destructive path through one of our national treasures.

Call your Senator today and tell her to oppose a path of destruction through the Izembek National Wildlife Refuge. A Committee vote could come as early as Wednesday.

Blanche Lincoln
DC:
(202) 224-4843
Local: (501) 375-2993

Deliver this simple message:
“My name is Tammy and I’m calling from Berryville. I want to urge my Senator to oppose S. 1680 -- a bill that would create a destructive road through the Izembek National Wildlife Refuge. S. 1680 would devastate this special place by blazing an expensive and unnecessary road right through the heart of the Izembek Refuge, disturbing the fragile habitat and wildlife that live there. I urge you to stop this harmful and costly road by opposing S. 1680. Thank you for your time.”

Then tell us how your call went -- this important step will help us in our advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill.

Tens of thousands of waterfowl, seabirds and shorebirds rely on the Izembek for nesting and feeding. In fact, the refuge shelters the threatened Steller’s eider and nearly the entire population of the Pacific black brant and the emperor goose each fall.

With your help, we can defeat this costly and destructive plan -- and preserve one of Alaska’s most spectacular places.

Noah Matson, Defenders of Wildlife
Sincerely,

Noah Matson

WE CAN SOLVE THE CLIMATE CRISIS  

Sign Now

As climate change causes the continued shrinkage of Arctic sea ice, polar bears are increasingly at risk. Leading American scientists say placing the polar bear on the federal Endangered Species list is key to its survival. 

A federal court has given the Bush administration until May 15 to decide if it will list the polar bear as endangered. Click here to tell Secretary of Interior Dirk Kempthorne that the polar bear, and its fragile Arctic habitat, requires protection from the effects of global warming.

If the Secretary listens to the scientists, the polar bear will gain important protections. Additionally, federal agencies will need to consider how their future activities could affect the species -- and that could be an important step in leading the government to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. Please sign our petition to protect polar bears today.

Action Alert

Dear Tammy,

The Mississippi wetlands – home to the endangered Louisiana Black Bear – is in danger of being destroyed forever.

The deadline for comments is May 5.

Send your message to the EPA today!

Right now a project called the Yazoo Pumps threatens to destroy 200,000 acres of Mississippi Delta wetlands – the home of the Louisiana black bear.

The Environmental Protection Agency recently announced a plan to stop the Yazoo Pumps, but we need your help to make sure there is a groundswell of public support for this plan.

Write the EPA today to say how important this is to you!

May 5th is the fast-approaching deadline to send your official public comment to the Environmental Protection Agency supporting its plan to stop the Yazoo Pumps.

For the first time in nearly 20 years, the EPA is using its "veto authority" to stop the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers from constructing the environmentally destructive Yazoo Pumps project.

But for the final veto to go through, the EPA needs to hear from you that you want this project gone.

Just one minute of your time will help protect 200,000 acres of Mississippi Delta wetlands that would be drained and destroyed by the pumps. These are the same wetlands where Theodore Roosevelt famously refused to shoot a bear that had been tied to a tree – an action that sparked the creation of the teddy bear.

Stopping this project will also protect some of the best wildlife habitat in the heart of the Mississippi River Flyway, keep several wildlife refuges and national forests healthy and save taxpayers more than $220 million!

On April 17th, hundreds of people came to the public hearing in Vicksburg, Mississippi, to support the EPA's plan to veto the pumps.

Now YOU can help by personalizing and sending comments to the EPA to make sure it "Dumps the Pumps" to protect Mississippi's precious wetlands and wildlife.

Send your message today before the May 5th deadline.

Let's flood the EPA with messages urging it to protect this important wildlife habitat!

Sincerely,

Michael Town
Campaign Director, SaveOurEnvironment.org

Pythons, boas and anacondas should not be pets!
https://community.hsus.org/campaign/hsi_snakes_trade

 

istockphoto/Katie Sheard

Pythons, boa constrictors and anacondas belong in the wild, not kept in cages as pets.

Speak out for the welfare of snakes.

 
April 22, 2008
 
Dear Tammy,
 
Almost 1 million pythons, boa constrictors and anacondas were imported into the United States from 2002-2006—more than 500 a day—and more were bred in captivity here.
 
The practice of keeping such snakes as pets is a threat to human health and safety, the environment, and the welfare of the animals themselves. They are dangerous, may carry disease and can wreak havoc on ecosystems if released into the wild. Additionally, the snakes suffer when people cannot meet their complex dietary and habitat needs.
 
Between now and April 30, The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FW is accepting public comment on a notice of inquiry, the first step in a process that could ultimately prohibit importation and interstate trade of pythons, boa constrictors, and anacondas as pets.
 
Please take a moment now to submit your comments to help snakes.
 
Then, please encourage your friends and family to do the same. 
 
Thank you for all that you do to help animals.

Sincerely,

Andrew Rowan
Chief Executive Officer

anonymous Stop Research on Chimps April 18, 2008 2:22 PM

Release and Restitution for Chimpanzees in U.S. Laboratories

Bill Introduced to End Invasive Research on Chimpanzees!

 

 



Our promise to all the chimpanzees we know - that we will help all those who are still waiting in laboratories -
will be fulfilled with passage of the Great Ape Protection Act.



Dear Friends,

I am writing to announce very good news:

The Great Ape Protection Act was introduced today by U.S. Representatives Edolphus Towns (D-NY), David Reichert (R-WA), Jim Langevin (D-RI), and Roscoe Bartlett (R-MD.) With strong bi-partisan leadership, the bill seeks to end invasive biomedical research and testing on all great apes in U.S. laboratories and to release all federally owned great apes into permanent sanctuary.

Project R&R is working diligently with HSUS and other organizations and individuals to secure a precedent setting number of co-sponsors and a groundswell of public support for this bill, which offers the promise of protection from research to all chimpanzees now languishing in laboratories, many for more than 40 years.

Sincere thanks to all of you for your ongoing support. And thank you for remembering as we continue to ask for your help as we work toward our legislative goals.

PLEASE contact your federal legislators and urge them to join Rep. Towns, Reichert, Langevin, and Bartlett by signing onto the Great Ape Protection Act as a co-sponsor. 

By taking action and asking your family and friends to do so as well, we will build the support essential to pass the Great Ape Protection Act!
 
Sincerely,

Theodora Capaldo, EdD
President & Executive Director
NEAVS/Project R&R 

 
  The Great Ape Protection Act

  Prohibits:

> Invasive research on great apes
> Federal funding of such research
   both within and outside of the U.S.
> Transport of great apes for such research
> Federal breeding of great apes for such research

  Requires:

> Permanent retirement of
   all federally-owned great apes

You can help stop the clock on species extinction by adding your voice now!Dear Tammy,

Species like the tiger - one of the most spectacular animals on earth - are disappearing at an alarming rate.

It’s true. Today less than 2,500 tigers roam the earth's wilds with no more than 250 in any one population. 

Their decline is spine-chilling. These majestic animals are dissected for use as medicinal remedies … their habitats are swallowed up for farming and housing as populations in Asia increase… and hundreds of tigers are killed with their valuable coats sold in the black market.

And tigers aren't the only ones disappearing. Another species is pushed towards extinction every 20 minutes. Extinctions have not happened so fast since the dinosaurs were killed by the collision of an enormous asteroid with our planet 65,000,000 years ago.

Tammy, you have the power to stop the extinction clock. These creatures are counting on you to give voice to life on Earth, and slow down these astronomical rates of extinction. There are two easy ways you can take action right now.

  1. Sign the petition and help us reach our goal of 20,000 people (1,000 signers for every minute of the extinction clock) to send a powerful message to influential leaders at the World Conservation Conference in Barcelona.
  2. Donate a Buck-a-Minute ($1 for every minute of the extinction clock - that's just $20) and help me protect critical habitats worldwide, curb climate change, and build conservation capacity to respond to the extinction crisis.

Your caring and generous $20 donation not only helps assure that tigers are here on our planet for good, but that all species have a better chance of survival - even humanity ourselves. 

There are a lot of ways you could spend $20 - but none as meaningful as being part of the change that helps save splendid animals like the tiger. Please don't wait another minute. Help us reach our goal of $20,000 and 20,000 names today!

Thank you so much for your support, 
Tom Brooks

We're over half way there...help us get 20,000 names!

I don't know if I have posted this to this group or not but if I have please realize how important this subject is to me. The US wildlife trade is inexcuesable. It is 5 billion dollars a year and world wide it is over 8 billion. These animals are meant to be left in their natural habitats to roam free. If imported and exported many suffer horific deaths, some mammed for life, abandoned, starved, abused. Some are taken to sanctuaries already overloaded with animals while others are set free in ecosystems that aren't their own upsetting the balance. Some who are set free seek human contact for food endangering those around them. Please, with tears in my eyes and lump in my throat help me fight this!
Please pass this petition on to all you know,post it everywhere, please get involved ! Thank you so much.

Photographer and America's Next Top Model judge Nigel Barker just took a trip to Canada to shoot probably the cutest models he'll ever have the pleasure of working with...baby seals! My crush on him just got about ten times bigger.


ANTM%27s_Nigel_Barker.jpg
Michael Yarish/The CW/Creative Commons


Of course as we all know the pleasure is short lived because in less than a month those same baby seals will most likely be bludgeoned to death in Canada's barbaric annual seal hunt.

So Barker decided to do what he does best and photograph the seals to show the world the amazing faces of the gentle, trusting animals who will soon become fashion's latest victims.

"I hope to raise awareness in the youth of today with the graphic images of both the joy and desperation from the largest mammalian birthing site and consequent killing fields on Earth. This sort of behavior cannot and will not be tolerated by the youth of today and I intend to do something about it," he said.

How marvelous that someone who's actually involved in the fashion industry is speaking up for the baby seals instead of cashing in on their horrible deaths. Of course, Barker's not the only celeb calling for an immediate end to the seal hunt and I'm sure he won't be the last...unless it's actually stopped once and for all that is, and that's where you come in.

Barker is calling for the youth of today to do something about the seal hunt and since youth = you please sign our petition

Help End the Seal Slaughter




Add your name to the petition urging Prime Minister Stephen Harper to end Canada's cruel seal hunt. Please forward the petition to your friends and family.


Every year in Canada, hundreds of thousands of baby harp seals are mercilessly slaughtered for their skins, and we want you to help get this cruel practice banned by signing PETA's seal petition. Watch the video to see more.


Canadian-born Pamela Anderson has joined PETA and animal activists worldwide in condemning the hunt.


"As a proud Canadian who frequently travels abroad," says Pamela, "I am alarmed that people are starting to see Canada as a country more beholden to a pack of greedy hunters and to the seal-skin 'fashion' whims of a few countries than to the massive international outcry against such a barbaric activity."

Please sign and forward the petition below today.

Subject: Allow a European Convention To Protect Pets and Stray Animals

A member of the European Parliament, Mr. Alain Hutchinson, is committed to cooperate with animal welfare and to get a "European Convention Protecting Pets and Stray Animals" passed as soon as possible.

He needs 1 million signatures in order to present the project to the Parliament. That means we need to get hard at work and collect those signatures.

Can you please help by signing this petition? It's easy and won't take much time. To go to the petition copy this link to your browser:

I posted this petition I had just started this past friday. It's also to stop the trapping of otters and bobcats in Illinois. I had immediately started this petition after reading the news article that was posted this past Friday night. I posted it in the "New Petitions and I mean New!" thread right after I created it. Just wanted to post this so that I can let you all know that I am running one,too.. and don't want to be forgotten because I'm willing to fght this as well.

Don't let Illinois otters and bobcats suffer in cruel traps!

If HB 4632 bill is enacted into law, the expanded use of these cruel trapping devices will cause immense suffering.


Please take a few moments of your time to help defeat HB 4632 so it does not become state law

My good friend Leslie Postin has discovered that Illinois state are about to allow the trapping of Otters that were reintroduced following man's destruction of these wonderfull animals in the past. I need not tell you just how cruel trapping is nor the suffering the animal is subjected to before being dying...I hope I do not need to tell you that. This madness has to be stopped before it is started. Nature is not some sort of fairground for man's entertainment. It has a job to do. Otters help to keep fish stocks healthy by weeding out the sick ones.
Leslie has done a petition which is http://www.thepetitionsite.com/2/oppose-trapping-season-on-otters-and-bobcats-in-illinois

Hello all,

I have created a petition for a woman in my state who was wrongly charged for trying to help a dying dog that was penned up and neglected in someone's yard.  We are trying to get the PA governor to pardon her- no charges were brought against the dog's owner.  Please sign this petition and forward it to as many people as you can.  I would greatly appreciate it!!!

Group History URGENT HELP SEA LIONS AND RODEO ANIMALS 6:05 AM

Speak Out to Save Sea Lions Along the Pacific Coast

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMF is considering allowing the states of Washington and Oregon to kill California sea lions at the Bonneville Dam on the Columbia River in a misguided attempt to protect endangered salmon from being eaten by the sea lions.

NMFS’s proposal would allow Washington and Oregon to capture and lethally inject or shoot as many as 85 sea lions each year. According to the Environmental Assessment (EA) this proposal is the NMFS’s "preferred option."

This crisis over endangered salmon and hungry sea lions is just one example of what happens when humans degrade an ecosystem. Please tell NMFS to choose a more effective and humane way to protect endangered salmon.

Comments are needed by February 19. So please don’t delay — take action and you may be able to avert this tragedy.

To find out more and take action on this alert, click here.

Help Santa Clara County Ban Rodeos and Circuses with Animals

On February 12, 2008, the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors will hold an advisory hearing to consider an ordinance which will prohibit rodeos and the use of wild and exotic animals in circuses and traveling shows. If this ordinance is approved it will affect both private and public lands within the county.

Your attendance in support of this ordinance is important, as the number of people who show up will likely influence the outcome. So please consider taking a half day off work if you can — a few hours of your time will make an enormous difference for animals used in rodeos and circuses.

We also urgently ask that you contact the Supervisors prior to next week’s meeting, to urge their support for the ban.

Thank you for using your voice to protect animals from these inhumane and archaic events!
