Support the PAW Act - End Alaska's Aerial Hunting Program!
Target: U.S. House of Representatives

Alaska is truly our nation's last frontier. It is also the last place in the U.S. where a few hunters still use aircraft to chase and kill wolves. They shoot these animals from the air or chase them to exhaustion before landing and shooting them point blank.
Thirty five years ago, Congress passed a law to put an end to aerial hunting. But Alaska is exploiting a loophole in federal law to resume the practice, not only for wolves, but bears as well. Hundreds of scientists have condemned what Alaska is doing, even as other states threaten to follow Alaska's lead. It's time to stop aerial hunting once and for all.
Rep. George Miller (CA) has introduced the Protect America's Wildlife (PAW) Act, legislation to close a federal loophole and curb Alaska's brutal aerial hunting program -- and prevent programs like it from spreading to places like the Greater Yellowstone region.
Please urge your Representative to sign on as a cosponsor to Rep. George Miller's PAW Act.

Gandhi said it best, "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."

Wolves are on earth aren't they? They're here for a reason, and it isn't to be killed.

Words can't describe how unacceptable this is. It must be changed now, before it is too late. Hunting wolves is beyond unnecessary, it is downright sickening and unjust! There should be a serious punishment for such stupidity!
