UPDATE: January 6, 2013 @ 6pm
The California Fish and Game C0mmission refused to take any action to stop the Coyote Killing Contest that starts Saturday in Modec County. Animal rights activists spoke out against the sadistic "contest" today in front of the game commission.
The commission gave testimony that OR7 is too far away from the "hunt" and implied he is not in any immediate danger.
I urge everyone to sign the petition and contact the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the California Fish and Game Commission. Flood them with calls! These sadistic, thrills kills have to stop! Now they are going after OR7 who has been spotted in the same area recently. We can’t allow them to kill the only wolf in California in 100 years and say Ooooooops we thought it was a coyote.
The poor coyotes are persecuted enough and now these cretins are looking for a bigger prize. PLEASE TAKE ACTION. It starts on Saturday, February 8!!!!
Right, no animal should be made sport of, whether common or endangered
Just signed the petition here: http://www.change.org/petitions/ca-dept-of-fish-wildlife-f-g-commission-stop-coyote-killing-contest …Thank you Jim and everyone else who wants sanity and justice and cherishes life.
Thank you Laura for signing and sharing the petition, and for all you do for the animals
