Update on Idaho Wanting Wolves Hunted! January 12, 2006 1:24 AM
Update on Idaho Wanting Wolves Hunted!
As already documented here (http://www.heartofthewolf.org/IdahoTurnover.htm) Gale Norton has turned over management of Wolves over to Idaho. Idaho as already documented here also is already interested in hunting Wolves and is trying to get approval to hunt Wolves from her.
It is revealed that the Idaho Fish and Game now wants to get approval to hunt 51 Wolves. They claim that hunting them will 'help' elk herds.
This is nothing more than Idaho's resolve to destroy Wolves and the persistant hatred of Wolves. Wolves will not annihilate their primary food source. This is simply about those who hunt elk (which are hunted for fun by people) don't want Wolves to have their food. Greed by those who support the sadistic hunting of elk who don't want to see 'their' precious supply depleted by Wolves who actually need their fraction of the elk population for food.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
1) Contact Gale Norton (gale_norton@ios.doi.gov) and tell her not allow hunting of Wolves in Idaho. This is because with this new proposal, the threat to the Wolves in Idaho is more threatening than before.
2) Contact Idaho Fish and Game (http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/inc/contact.cfm) and tell them to stop this madness. Wolves do not need to be hunted. It is illogical and not proven that Wolves solely decimate their food supplies. This plan is the culmination of people who hunt Elk for fun and don't want Wolves to be able to feed on what they need to. They regard any loss of 'their' elk as a problem. Elk shouldn't be hunted by people and Wolves shouldn't be 'reduced.'
3) Contact Idaho Senators today and please get them to listen to reason. Get them to support the idea that these Wolves shouldn't be killed for the reasons above.
First Finland is trying to get the Eurpoean Commission to allow the murdering of Wolves. They think that Wolves should be hunted and submitted in December a proposal to this effect.
This proposal claims to give hunters the right to murder Wolves in the clause of Wolves being a threat to Humans, the Environment, and Wolves. Which all are bogus reasons.
Write letters to: Mr Soren NIELSEN soren.nielsen@eea.eu.int
This isn't the first time that they have attempted something like this.
Last September they were taken to court by the European Commission because they handed out too many hunting permits. Wolves in the European Union are classified as Endangered, so they have protection.
Helsinki is also fighting the Wolves protection status. Please contact the same people they are, the EC Court of Justice. And have them please uphold the Endangered Status on Wolves in the European Union.
Miss Estella CIGNA Information Service estella.cigna@curia.eu.int
And in Finland, fear and hate of Wolves is goading the Presidential Elections to make hunting Wolves a focus. Finnish citizens consider where they live with Wolves as being 'haunted.' Many consider them a threat solely to livestock, children, and hunting dogs.
"People fear what they don't understand." -- Storm from X-Men 90s show "They fight us because they fear us. Because they don't yet understand.. They must see that we are not a threat to mankind, but are a part of it." -- Beast from X-Men 90s show
Contacting the Finnish Ministry and the Capital about Wolves and what they truly are are a must.
In particular, use these links.
1) Use this Wolf FAQ to show that Wolves are not monsters, and that they are living beings that deserve to live as much as humans do.
3) Show proof that Wolves attacking Livestock is rare and can be prevented without lethal means. And also mention that hunting is a barbaric practice. No animal deserves to be hunted and eradicated.
Write letters under the category of suggestions. Writing to the Finnish Government is also a top priority since the elections are taking place around January 15th.
If that wasn't bad enough, she plans to allow hunting of Wolves in both Idaho and Montana. She is going to sign allowing this to be done, sometime next week.
AMOC Proposing Murdering Wolves in Livestock Issues! January 01, 2006 11:51 AM
AMOC Proposing Murdering Wolves in Livestock Issues!
AMOC is Adaptive Management Oversight Committee. It is a group that is specializing in the 'reintroduction' of Mexican Wolves in Blue Range (in Arizona and New Mexico). It is a huge project which of course consists of the consortium of the US Fish and Wildlife Service, Wildlife Services, APHIS, and more.
Already, they are proposing outdated and ineffective means of non lethal methods: cracker shells and rubber bullets. And once again, this 'recovery' effort is going to allow the murder of Wolves in livestock issues in the words of the euphemism called control. Although these 'recommendations' won't even be ratified until 2007, we don't need to wait until Wolves die to take action.

Norton and Kempthorne Will Authorize Murdering of Wolves! January 01, 2006 11:51 AM
Norton and Kempthorne Will Authorize Murdering of Wolves!
It has been made official. Gale Norton, the so-called conservationist will be making an agreement to allow Wolves to be murdered in livestock depredation issues.
This is very bad for the Wolves, for it is not protecting the Wolves, nor Humans in the end, but feeding the fire as predicted for racism against Wolves. Already, Ron Gillett, of the Idaho Anti-Wolf Coalition wants all Wolves annihilated. And Carter Niemeyer of course endorses them in spite of even admitting that livestock depredation incidents are low.
We must get the word out to all parties here that Wolves do not have to be murdered in livestock depredation issues. And that education and non lethal methods and Predator Friendly Ranching practives can be used to prevent such conflicts without violence or atrocity (http://www.heartofthewolf.org/source.html)

Black Mountain's Full Moon Farm connected with Gentle Jungle! December 27, 2005 8:54 PM
Black Mountain's Full Moon Farm connected with Gentle Jungle!
Thanks to a tip, it has been revealed that Maverick from Black Mountain's Full Moon Farm was sent to a place called Gentle Jungle to be used in the film. As it turns out, Gentle Jungle has a notorious history of using and abusing animals for Television and Movies. Below is the correspondence and the individual who kindly revealed another wheel in the conspiracy in Narnia.
From: **********@*****.com Date: Tue, 27 Dec 2005 00:06:03 EST Subject: Chronicles of Narnia To: mike@heartofthewolf.org Dear Mr. Wagner:
While looking for facts on the way Wolves are portrayed in Narnia, I happened to find your website. I too wrote to Miss Brown, and recieved roughly the same letter as you did in return. But, I did some searching and found all the other wolves were supplied by a place known as "Gentle Jungle" (this is also where Maverick the wolf dog has been sent) I also wrote an email to them saying how wolves should not be potrayed as evil, becuase they are gentle ,intelligent creatures. I have just recieved a response, and was appalled at what they wrote! Their reply is exactly as follows:
"You obviously have never watched three or four wolves eat something while it was still alive. Do you think Anthony Hopkins is a mean person. It is a movie!"
I looked into this "Gentle Jungle" a bit and found a few articles about them being involved with animal abuse. Including the following from here:
"Clyde the orangutan died a few months after filming Any Which Way You Can in 1980.
During a federal hearing alleging animal mistreatment against the training company, Gentle Jungle, an assistant claimed a trainer beat Clyde with a cane and an ax handle.
Gentle Jungle was fined for other abuses, but not for harming Clyde -- at the time abusing primates was not illegal."
I noticed a few other articles talking about their animal abuse, and saw animals in small concrete cages on their website. I would like to inform as many people as possible about "Gentle Jungle" and their cruelty to animals... And I believe maybe Miss Brown would like to know the facts on where her wolf dog was sent.
I just wanted to inform you of this, since your website was a good source of information. I figured you, and other people who want to help wolves would like to know about "gentle jungle"
It is an article which the author gradually becomes one who abhorrs murdering of animals, to one who finally accepts it. It is an article where, Sherry Simpson doesn't mind the destruction of Wolves. She also is present in vivid detail of the skinning and defiling of a Wolf that was murdered by a trapper.
It's rather morbid considering that this article is from a site called Creative Nonfiction. Is Creative Nonfiction the murder of a Wolf, skinned and used as property? It is it Creative when the author of this article willingly watches all this happen while doing nothing about it?
No!
An aticle from a site that is called Creative Nonfiction must be one that promotes something philanthropic in nature. We cannot let a site that is supposed to be creative think that articles like this constitute creativeness.
Lengthy replies with really ethical thinking behind them is needed here. We need to show the illogicalness and unethicalness of what is going on here. Creative articles on this site shouldn't have opinions that support murder.
ALSO CHECK THIS OUT: I discovered a really disturbing product that claims to support Wolves but in the end supports the hideous regime of the USFWS/USDA/DNR.
It is even more disturbing since the contact information for Park County Predatory Animal Control Board and Craig Acres, district supervisor for the federal government’s Wildlife Services agency, cannot be found, at least on the web. One thus cannot contact both these parties and tell them that what is going on here is wrong. That non lethal methods can prevent these conflicts and that the murder of Wolves is not the answer. Which of course flags conspiracy.
All parties here including the murderous Rod Krischke, state director of Wildlife Services have a role in this.
Non lethal methods and Predator Friendly Ranching (http://www.heartofthewolf.org/source.html) are being denied and not used to peacefully prevent livestock depredations by Wolves. All these parties know what is going on here, that they refuse to prevent conflicts and incite more by using murder to solves this issue where it has time and time again.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
1) First contact Commissioners Marie Fontaine (mfontaine@parkcounty.us) and Tim French (tfrench@parkcounty.us). They need to know that continued Wolf Murders are unacceptable. Non Lethal Methods and Predator Friendly Ranching practices work and that their implementation and education to the ranching populace would stop this situation peacefully. Since contact information with Craig Acres of APHIS/USDA/WS cannot be reaches along with the Park County Predatory Animal Control Board, they are the ones who have to hear this.
2) Rod Krischke had a hand in this considering he and the murderous Mike Jimenez of the USFWS in Wyoming work together and slaughter Wolves. He isn't concerned with the success of Wolves. If he did he wouldn't have participated in the 37 Wolf Murders in Wyoming that occured this year whcih 13 are in Park County!
He needs to be contacted at (rodney.f.krischke@aphis.usda.gov) and told that the handling of this situation should have never reached this point. Non lethal methods and Predator Friendly Ranching has been proven time and time again. The lack of implementing such measures has created this conflict. He needs to stop participating in this business of murder and start promoting these peaceful methods to successfully live with Wolves.
Field And Stream Wolf Hunt Poll--Vote No! December 23, 2005 12:02 AM
Field And Stream Wolf Hunt Poll--Vote No!
The recent disaster in Canada where Wolves were blamed for the death of a man and as a result two were killed in spite of them not doing anything wrong (see http://www.heartofthewolf.org/CanadaWolves.htm for a complete breakdown of the situation) has come to a climax.
Field and Stream, the magazine that loves hunting, of course wants to use this to start hunting them.
Please drop by and vote no for hunt on Wolves. If anything this whole situation is the pinnacle of human atrocity.
In the first fatal attack by a healthy, wild wolf ever documented in North America, an ecology student in Northern Saskatchewan was killed and eaten in early November. << and Eaten >>?? So we want to know, do you think it's time to start hunting wolves? Yes No
They also have their own version of events which of course blames the Wolves for the incident and want them hunted. They also have their own insidious archive of propaganda making them look bad.
Mike Jimenez Murders 3 Wolves and Plans to Murder Entire Pack! December 13, 2005 11:06 AM
Mike Jimenez Murders 3 Wolves and Plans to Murder Entire Pack!
Mike Jimenez, who continually ignores the use of non lethal methods and refuses to promote them and Predator Friendly Ranching, has struck again. He has murdered 3 Wolves already of the Daniel Pack and plans to murder the rest.
In the meantime, it should be known that the notorious Wolf Murderer Carter Niemeyer is ending his reign of terror in January of next year. Althought the USFWS thanks him (obviously since they as a whole have been involved in the thousands of Wolves murdered in the states of MT, WY, and ID), there will be a permanent article that will always remember these victims who fell to him.
Of course his email address, to for those interested is: carter_niemeyer@fws.gov
In particular, it has been revealed that the Wolf's name is Maverick and that he came from a Black Mountain's Full Moon Farm.
The founder Nancy Brown decided to use the Wolf in the film, despite knowing that the Wolf would be portrayed as evil. In this new article that has surfaced, she has pulled a tactic known as greenwashing. Greenwashing is when someone who commits and atrocity against the wild and tries to cover it up by claiming to do something ethical.
In this article 'Screen wolf', she actually believes that although the Wolves were portrayed as evil in the film, that the big myth of the big bad wolf will be dispelled because he was a higly trained Wolf.
Millions will see this film and see the Wolves as monsters. And since when did Wolves become dogs? I know most Wolf Sanctuaries out there, like Wolf Mountain Sanctuary thrive on educating the public and treating the Ambassador Wolves with respect, rather than making them like pets and saying it's a good Wolf so its okay to use it in a film as evil.
This is greenwashing at its finest, and it is a shame that real Wolves have to be involved in this scheme. It is also hypocrisy. She didn't have to use the Wolf known as Maverick in the film. She could have educated the populace about Wolves without having him in the film as an evil monster.

Colorado Sanctuary Faces Closing - Possible Euthanasia
The following is a heart wrenching story of an animal sanctuary similar to Big Cat Rescue in Colorado facing closing and possible euthanasia of some or all of its animals. Please read through the story.http://cbs4denver.com/pets/local_story_339170918.html
Please visit their web site - www.wildlife-sanctuary.org - and make a donation. As one of the volunteers has said, any little bit will help put a dent in their crisis.
“Wild Animal Sanctuary”
1946 WCR 53 Keenesburg, CO 80643 303-536-0118 information@wildlife-sanctuary.org
The center should in addition not euthanize these animals, but find safe places for them to go as well. Animals shouldn't be protected from atrocity, just to be murdered. Please donate now to slow down the process of the closure of this Sanctuary.

Arashi no Yoruni (On the Night of a Storm)
A very cool story about a Wolf (Gabu) and a Goat (Mei).
It has captivated readers from children to adults. Hopefully it will come out in English soon! And the author Kimura Yuichi is really fond of Wolves and has written alot about them.
Here is an interview with Kimura for more information.
Switzerland, a country with only two or three wolves, is trying to
downgrade the animal's conservation status and allow it to be hunted
across Europe.
The Swiss proposal, which was submitted to the Council of Europe, will be voted upon at a meeting next week.
Switzerland should immediately withdraw its proposal and instead work to maintain the wolf's protected status in Europe.
Got this from Planet of Animal Fanatics at Care 2.

Don't See Film Version of Chronicles of Narnia!
Wolves falsely portrayed in film version of Chronicles of Narnia Film!
As you readers are most likely aware of, the film Chronicles of Narnia, made by Disney, will be out in theaters on Christmas Day. I am sure due to the current population of the U.S., many drones will see it and it will make millions of dollars.
However, I for one will be one of those who will not be seeing the film. Why you ask? Check this out. In the film, there is a scene that is not in the books that will be defacing the Wolves.
It is a scene where Wolves are chasing the main protagonists to a chunk of ice where they are trapped. Then one of the children uses the staff he was given to help him and the others escape.
It's rather sad considering the film's creators decided to import them from New Zealand just to be portrayed as 'evil animals.' Not to mention this is going to leave the impression on children for years that Wolves are evil.
Oh yeah, did I forget to mention that you also get to fight Wolves in the home game based on the film?
As one critic describes:
GamePro The between-level load times are also slow, but the greatest concern is the unhelpful and idiotic friendly A.I. that leaves you alone, fending off hordes of attacking wolves while your siblings stand stupidly by.
Don't blame C.S. Lewis for the fact that his movie has been altered severely. He was a lover of animals and humans alike. In fact, he said this once.
"If we cut up beasts simply because they cannot prevent us and because we are backing our own side in the struggle for existence, it is only logical to cut up imbeciles, criminals, enemies, or capitalists for the same reasons." -- C. S. Lewis
So I think he would have a beef with not just the movie but the game as well. And I am sure he is also rolling in his grave right now.
So thanks once again to Disney (who once did this in the animation adaptation of Beauty and the Beast), Director Andrew Adamson (The Creator of Shrek) and his staff for making a film that perpetuates Wolves as being monsters and evil.
You won't be getting my 9 dollars. And I hope those who love animals and respect life won't see this movie or recommend it to children for the same reasons above. So pass this on, if you could.
Canada 'Conservation ' Officers Promote Fear and Violence Against Wolves! Part 2. November 22, 2005 1:45 PM
Canada 'Conservation ' Officers Promote Fear and Violence Against Wolves! Part 2.
Recent horrific events have continued in Wollaston Lake area, Saskatchewan, Canada. At first it was Wolves who were framed for the death of a man. And Tim Trottier had made it legal for Humans to murder Wolves in 'self defense'.
Fear leads to hate and hate leads to suffering. Now the cycle of murder of innocents has truly begun. Two Wolves were murdered as a result of this whole incident. Whether Trottier was involved, is unknown. http://www.cbc.ca/sask/story/wolves-tested051116.html?ref=rss
What Can You Do? 1) First contact Tim Trottier. His invovlement in this incident is highly likely. Please contact him at ttrottier@serm.gov.sk.ca And ask him to stop the Wolves from being murdered. The last two should be peacefully relocated from the area of this whole disaster. 2) Contact the Minister of Saskatchewan, David Forbes Minister of Saskatchewan dforbes@mla.legassembly.sk.ca, DForbes@serm.gov.sk.ca And tell him about the situation and have him help save the last two Wolves of Wollaston Lake area
3) Contact Dave Phillips of the Resource and Environmental Stewardship Division at DPhillips@serm.gov.sk.ca and tell him the same.

Canadian Government Wants Wolves Murdered for Science Experiment! November 18, 2005 12:48 PM
Canadian Government Wants Wolves Murdered for Science Experiment!
"Humans are capable of the most wonderful and the most terrifying things with the power of science. As a scientist, it makes me shiver just thinking about it." -- Ciel, from Megaman Zero 4
Canada's government is doing a full scale attack on the Wolves. It first started with the Canadian Government allowing humans to murder Wolves in 'self defense' after a false news reports in print were saying Wolves recently killed a man.
Now scientists from the Ministry of Natural Resources want to have Wolves murdered for 'research.' They want to find out population of information of Wolves. Numbers, gender and species. This can be done without violence or oppressive means. The Canadian Government is just using this as an excuse to mass murder Wolves. The MNR is using hunters and trappers, who are more than eager to murder Wolves, to do this.
1) First contact the 'scientist' Lisa Harvey, who is organizing this effort. Her address is:
Attn: Lisa Harvey Ministry of Natural Resources 479 Government Road P. O. Box 730 Dryden, Ontario P8N 2Z4 Tel: 807-223-3341 Fax: 807-223-2824
You need to tell her that violent or oppressive means do not have to be used in determining Wolf population numbers. By hiring hunters and trappers to murder Wolves for research, she herself is a murderer and helping the Canadian Government's agenda to murder Wolves. This is unacceptable and should not be done.
2) Contact other Canadian Officials
Here is other contact information for various officials that you need to contact about this issue.

"Humans are capable of the most wonderful and the most terrifying things with the power of science. As a scientist, it makes me shiver just thinking about it." -- Ciel, from Megaman Zero 4
An incident has broken out in Canada. A man was killed in a forest at Points North Landing. The true cause of death is unknown. However, the Canada media as well as the Canada Environmental Department have automatically blamed it on Wolves. Although it is know that the Wolves predated on the corpse of the individual, these sources are acting on fear, claiming that the Wolves killed the man.
Because of this fear of Wolves, they have issued an order to destroy any Wolves that, 'attack' a human. Thus as fear leads to hate, hate leads to suffering. Even the 'scientist', Tim Trottier wildlife biologist with the Canadian Environmental Department knows that there has not been a Wolf attack on a human in 100 years! And animal attacks on humans are extremely rare. And they don't attack humans for the selfish reasons that humans do each other. Usually it is in self-defense, or someone violating their territory, or mistaking them for food.

Please act now! The lives of Wolves depend on you!
Instead he decided to side with USDA Wildlife Services (under the direction of Rod Krischke) who wants Wolves murdered. They both have been involved before in several Wolf murders. In fact, it was a murder of an Alpha Female and her pups!
1) First contact Mike Jimenez (mike_jimenez@fws.gov), and tell him that this outrageous form of violence and oppression is not acceptable. He needs to stop his murderous rampages and start promoting non lethal methods and Predator Friendly Ranching.
2) Also contact Rod Krischke (rodney.f.krischke@aphis.usda.gov) the director of USDA Wildlife Services. And tell him that Wildlife Services should not be about murdering Wolves in livestock depredation issues, but promoting non lethal methods and Predator Friendly Ranching methods that allow co-existing with them without violent or oppressive means.
3) Contact Jim Magagna (wsgajim@uswest.net) of Wyoming Stock Growers Association. This man who represents ranchers, needs to stop his pathological hatred of Wolves, murdering them and start promoting peaceful means to prevent livestock depredations.

MEDIA RELEASE
26th July 2005
CAMPAIGN GROWS AS CARING PEOPLE AIM TO FREE WOLF
The campaign to free a zoo wolf at the Okinawa Children's Zoo in Japan, was started by Greg Leisure and began on November 12th, 2004. Since then, the campaign had grown from 10 supporters to a worldwide network of over 800 caring individuals, all of whom are helping to free Kei through emails, letters and phone calls to the zoo and other 'targets' in the prefecture of Okinawa. The petition site now nears 12,000 signatures as it keeps growing.
The aim of the campaign is to obtain the zoo's and city's agreement to release Kei so that she may be retired to a sanctuary in the U.S. or Canada that has agreed to accept her.
Greg Leisure, the campaign's organizer explains that the zoo's conditions haven't improved in ten years.
"When I first visited in the harsh summer heat of 1995, I remember seeing all the animals in small barren enclosures pacing on concrete.
Greg says “It was a visit that left me saddened and angered over the treatment of animals that I saw were having food thrown at them and being mocked by barks, howls, and cat calls. A total disrespect for the animals' needs permeated the entire atmosphere".
Kei is an urgent case because of her growing age. At 13 years old, Kei, a female North American Eastern Timber Wolf has lived virtually her entire life on a 7 x 4 meter concrete slab in almost total isolation from others of her species at the Okinawa City Kodomo no Kuni Zoo in Okinawa, Japan.
Visitors to the zoo have reported that she spends most of her time pacing around her enclosure in boredom and due to stress of living in such a small space, in the hot sub-tropical climate of Okinawa. The Campaign have been trying to persuade the zoo to place an air-conditioner or mister placed in it so that she can have cool air blown on her, but so far the zoo have ignored and declined their requests.
The official website for The Campaign to Bring Kei Home has just got better, after a major re-design by its webmaster, 15 year old Sam McCreesh from the United Kingdom.
The new campaign site at www.keithewolf.com hosts a wealth of new features including detailed action pages advising visitors how they can peacefully put pressure on the zoo by emails, letters, phone calls and demonstrations, a photo gallery and even a video clip showing the animal pacing up and down in her barren living space. There's a message board for campaigners to interact and share ideas on, plus links, contact info and web banners.
Comments Sam "I've been involved with the campaign ever since day one, and I decided I wanted to help in any way possible. It's not possible for me to be there outside the zoo protesting for Kei so I'm doing everything I can where possible - and creating the campaign's official site is one way I hope to help free this poor animal and give her the remaining life she deserves".
A new download centre with posters and fliers is in the pipelines and expected to launch soon. Anyone wishing to help Kei should contact the campaign at www.keithewolf.com or email info@keithewolf.com.
Ends.

Angela M. Wolves in Croatian zoo may die Tuesday, 3:41 AM Croatia: Wolves face death:not enough room and food for the animals
There is a huge problem for 5 wolves living in very inadequate space in a so-called zoo near Rijeka (town in Croatia).
The animals living there are suffering and they do not even have enough food.
Presently the owner has -syrian bears (male and female) 6 years old, -3 domestic bears (1 m 6 years old, 2 females - 1= 9, 1= 8 years), -2 bengal tigers (1 female 2 years and 1male 3 years old) and -5 Euroepan wolves (4 males 5 - 6 years and female 2 years and half).
The Ministry of culture in charge of protected species declared the intention to confiscate the wolves.
Our organisation succeded in saving 8 wolves si far (4 in a state shelter for confiscated wild animals and 4 in Osijek zoo), but there is no place for the other animals. However, we were able to provide 12 t meat food for those in Rijeka.
The Ministry decided to euthanize the wolves and the date is very close.
The owner is willing to give the animals free to a better home.
Please, please help these animals.
You may contact our organisation for further details.
Kind regards
