STOP US WILDLIFE TRADE
Target:
PRESIDENT OF THE US
Sponsored by:
We the people of the United States demand the stop of the US import of exotic animals. Here in the US it is a 10 billion dollar industry and all for what so there can be private ownership of these animals who suffer and are abused plus neglected. Fur trade is at an all time high so someone can feel sexy wearing a dead animal,or some may think that owning an exotic animal is chic? Sanctuaries all over the US are filled to capacity and are turning down animals because they don't have the room then these animals end up dying! Some animals are turned loose in habitats they are not native of and off set the balance in ecosystems or seek humans for food because they are used to human contact;this in turn puts humans, domestic animals and livestock at risk.
then there is the issue of canned hunting which put exotic animals and other wildlife in small enclosures leaving them open targets for hunters. These animals have no chance of survival because they can not defend themselves or have no place to hide just so men can feel like "he men." Like Terri Irwin said,"stop the buying stop the dying." How can we point a finger at other countries and try and help them save their wildlife when we americans are a contributing factor. Please put an end to the importing of exotics. Thank you.

Le seul moyens pour arrêter les bandits, chinois par exemple et comme toujours, qui pillent et détrusent la faune, est de bloquer tout commerce d'animaux sauvages...si ces brutes ne peuvent plus se mettre d'argent en poche, ils s'arrêteront....

Do you not have enough animals to abuse in your own country without having to import them. Or is it because the very well-to-do gets an extra thrill from killing something much more beautiful than themselves?

Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the plaesure of doing it. It is a trait that is not known to the higher animals. - "The Lowest Animal" - Mark Twain |

Wild animals need to be kept just there, in the wild. They are not here to be our pets or living room accessory. Very few people in this world are even trained properly to care for them and even that should be temporary. When are we gonna learn to respect ALL life on this planet

FUR IS MURDER, animals should stay in their natural habitats and not have their homes demoloshed, run over, locked in cages, murdered for their skin, fun or target practise.

I don't expect much from someone who has failed at his job more than any other president ever has in the history of the United States! You should be fired at once! And without collecting any pension too! Because you don't deserve to collect a pension let alone be free to walk the Earth! Just my opinion!

These animals are not "pets" or "clothing" or "target practice"! They are wild animals and should remain that way. We can stop this!

Wild animals were meant by God to live in the wild , they are NOT here to be play toys or something to show off for humans - It is CRUEL , HEARTLESS & DANGEROUS to keep wild animals for pets - STOP THID TRADE NOW !!!!!!!!!!

Exotic animals have no place as pets. People are not equipped to deal with their specialized needs and care. The animals are invariably kept in inadequate conditions and often suffer as a result. Their presence also places human populations at risk of injury or disease. Please ban the import, sale, trade or exchange of exotic animals as pets.
