Federal and State agents may be shooting wolves from aircraft in WY and Idaho soon
If we don't stop them. The Fish and Wildlife Service apparently adopted a plan allowing killing of all wolves outside of the two National Parks and now they are going to use *your* resources to begin an airborne massacre.

End Aerial Gunning of Wolves: Sign the Petition Today!

Each year in Alaska, hundreds of wolves are chased down and killed by gunners who shoot them from planes or, after chasing them to exhaustion, land the plane and shoot them at point-blank range -- brutal, inhumane and unnecessary practices that could start in Wyoming and Idaho as early as this Fall.

Rep. George Miller (CA) has crafted legislation to fix the Federal Airborne Hunting Act to close a loophole that would curb this cruel practice. But he needs your support to win passage of this wolf-saving measure.

Fill out the form below to sign on as a Citizen Cosponsor to close the loophole in the Federal Airborne Hunting Act and we'll hand deliver it to your Representative.

DUers could contact their Senators and Representatives and ask them to cosponsor the legislation, too. This won't be stopped in committee by Bill Frist and Dennis Asshat.
