Petition: Maximum Punishment For Poacher Who Illegally Killed 1000+ Jaguars!

A Brazilian dentist is accused of killing more than a thousand jaguars as the most active member of an illegal poaching gang. Add your name if you want to make an example of him and mandate the worst possible punishment!

Brazilian "police arrested seven men in the north-western state of Acre on suspicion of having killed thousands of endangered animals including jaguars, capybara, collared peccary and red brocket deer.

"Reports state the longest-serving member of the gang and the most active was Temistocles Barbosa Freire, a dentist who is believed to have illegally killed more than a thousand jaguars since 1987," according to the Daily Mail.

They went on to explain how strong the case against him is: "Brazilian NGO, Oeco, said police had wiretapped, monitored cell phones and collected photos and videos where the accused had recorded the animals being killed."

Do you have any doubt that this cruel hunter is guilty?

The jaguar is considered a near threatened species, which means that jaguar numbers are rapidly declining. Between illegal hunting, habitat destruction, the expansion of human settlements, and the slaughter of prey species, the future stability of jaguar populations is looking grim.

Heartless poachers like Temistocles Barbosa Freire are to blame.

Just look at the smile on his face. He's proud that he killed over 1000 jaguars, in addition to all the other countless rare creatures he butchered for his own gain.

The truth is that he's selfish, cruel and an irredeemable coward.

Don't you want to ensure that men like him will never dare to poach threatened jaguars and other rare animals ever again?

Then add your name to support our two-pronged effort to get jaguars the protection they deserve.

First, we ask Brazilian Minister of the Environment, Ricardo Salles, to introduce legislation mandating the most severe capital punishment for poachers like Friere.

Second, we demand that Brazilian Attorney General, André Luiz Mendonça, take on this case and make an example of the poacher who killed over 1000 jaguars and other rare animals, and strike fear into the hearts of those who might try to follow his lead!
