Support the PAW Act - End Alaska's Aerial Hunting Program!
Target: U.S. House of Representatives
Sponsored by: Care2.com
Sponsored by: Care2.com
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.
Congress passed a law thirty five years ago 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.

Wolves lived here before us and we have no right to kill them. Stop the aerial hunting of all wildlife.

I am asking you to sign on as a cosponsor to H.R. 3663, the PAW Act. I am concerned with th e"aerial hunting" of wolves in Alaska. Is that really a challenging sport?
