Petition Target: Mr. John Bridges, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.The United States is on the brink of war, and death is in the air, but must we bring death to our animal friends as well??
On September 20th, the Fish and Wildlife service gave ExxonMobile the right to kill polar bears as part of their drilling/oil exploration in Alaska! Not only will drilling disturb polar bear habitat and scare polar bear mothers into abandoning their cubs, but now, the oil giant has been given permission to KILL them OUTRIGHT.
In this time of death and destruction, please let us protect ALL lives, not take more.

We the undersigned DEMAND that Congress and the Fish and Wildlife Service revoke ExxonMobile's right to "take polar bears incidental to oil
and gas industry exploration activities in the Beaufort Sea and
adjacent northern coast of Alaska." We must be thoughtful in this dangerous time to protect our future.
The United States is PROUD of its rich and glorious wildlife population and our abundant wilderness. Let us stay proud and defend our land -- leave it intact. Once our wild heritage is destroyed, we will have nothing left to protect.
