Stop Aerial Wolf Slaughetr

Alaska’s Wolves Need Your Help
Hundreds of wolves have been killed in Alaska -- shot to death by gunners in low-flying aircraft or chased to exhaustion and shot at point-blank range. Please help us stop the killing -- take action now to urge the Bush Administration to put an end to aerial gunning in Alaska.

In the past five years, more than 700 Alaskan wolves have been brutally slaughtered by gunners in aircraft. Now another season of aerial gunning is underway. With your help, we can stop this awful practice! 
Take action now to help save the wolves -- Sign our petition to urge the Bush Administration to put an end to aerial gunning in Alaska.
Easy targets against fallen snow, wolves are gunned down from airplanes or chased to exhaustion, then shot at point blank range. State-licensed marksmen can target entire packs -- even pregnant mothers!
Last year alone, nearly 100 wolves were slaughtered from the skies. Fortunately, the state fell way short of their goals. But this year could be worse. Anxious to make up for last year, hundreds more wolves could be targeted this season.
It’s not wolf management. It’s a wolf massacre.
Tell the Bush Administration to enforce the Federal Airborne Hunting Act, the federal law that could put an end to the killing.
Wolves help the overall health of natural ecosystems. They help keep Alaska's moose and caribou populations healthy and strong. Wolves are also important to Alaska's billion-dollar tourism industry.
Yet the state continues to allow aerial gunning. In fact, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and the state legislature have approved spending $400,000 in taxpayer funds to promote the slaughter from the skies -- fearing Alaskans will once again vote to restrict this barbaric practice, as they have twice before.
Please sign this petition right now and help us end aerial gunning in Alaska.
Our wolves are a crucial part of the natural heritage that we’ll leave our children and grandchildren, and we have a real chance to end this terrible practice.
