Wolves.....
Hard to believe its summer time already.
It fells as if this year is going by way too fast.
Normally summer vacation should be a time to have some fun with your family and friends, Go on a trip or just hang out....whatever works for you. lol.
Unfortunately this summer marks a turning point for our country's national parks.
Because of recent changes in the law it is now legal to carry loaded gun's in the parks....in my opinion this is a very foolish thing to allow sure they say there are measures in place to prevent accidents. but there is all way room for errors in even the most well thought out plans.
The only thing this new law has accomplished is putting innocent tourists and locals in danger, because some gun toting fool fills its necessary to pack a gun in a national park....pathetic
This foolish law also makes it easier for poachers to start illegally hunting animals in protected areas.
poaching has been going on for a long time anyway but with this new law passed, It's just opening the gate to an even bigger problem.
On top of all that we still have a hand full of low life extremists like Idaho Governor C.L Butch Otter, Idaho's Ant-Wolf Coalitions Ron Gillette and Alaska's Governor Sara Palin who would like nothing more then to see wolves dead. and unfortunately if they get there way it will mean certain death for dozens if not hundreds of wolves in the Yellowstone area and the greater Northern Rocky Mountains region..... not even wolf pups will be speared in the coming slaughter.
Palin an avid enthusiast of aerial hunting....a practice that has been illegal since 1972, not to mention a sickening and barbaric sport... and i use that term loosely. (Since hunting in it self is not actually a sport per say but rather just the slaughter of unsuspecting animals.) Aerial hunting begins when one or more of the hunter's board a small plain and circle the area well the rest of them go into the woods and scare/chase the frightened animals out into the open, at which point the hunters in the plain "being the avid sportsmen that they are" begin shooting at the terrified animals usually hitting them in the back or gut and then proceed onward to kill even more innocent animals well leaving the already injured one's to suffer a slow and painful death. At one point Palin was even offering a bounty of $100 dollars for the hind leg of a wolf as prof of its death. Within a few days of legalising this cruel sport at least 66 wolves were killed.
Now the Alaskan Governor is taking things even further by approving the use of snares traps and lethal poisonous gas's in an attempt to kill even more wolves not just one or two but an entire pack pup's and all.
Help tell the Governor and her dimwitted followers that enough is enough.

Hunting a barbaric "sport"? You are so right. If wolves and grizzlies were armed with Glock automatic pistols or AK47's most hunters would head of rapidly in the opposite direction. Hunters, in my view, are barbarians, bullies, sadists, and above all, cowards. Killing defenceless creatures doesn't prove the hunter has more than one testicle!
ReplyDeleteI am British. This side of the Pond, we find your gun laws very peculiar.
Best wishes for your blogging.
Thank you for commenting.
ReplyDeleteBTW great comment!
Yes hunting is pathetic.
and guns should not be aloud in national parks under any circumstances it just puts everyone in danger, both animals and humans!
One good thing that has happened recently, is that Sarah Palin has rezined as the Alaska governor.
hopefully there will be more great changes soon.
Thanks again for the comment.
Tack care.
