Sign the Protect Seals Petition to Stop Cruel Seal Hunts

Over the past four years, Canada's beautiful harp seal nursery has been transformed into a scene of bloody carnage. The Canadian government has allowed more than one million seals—almost all of them babies as young as 12 days old—to be killed for their fur. The kill quota for 2008 is 275,000—5,000 more than last year.

But there is new hope for the seals. Right now, the European Commission is considering proposing a ban on the import and trade in seal products in the European Union—a move many believe could spell the end of commercial seal hunting globally.

Please take action today to let the EU know you support this ban! Humane Society International is actively lobbying the EU. Your action helps our efforts by showing the EU that there is worldwide support for an EU ban on trade in seal product. Sign the petition on this page. Then, after you've signed, please ask your friends to sign it, too.

Help the Red Wolves stay truly red.

Wolves are on on the endangered species list. Of all Wolves though the Red Wolf is the most critically faltering. The problem is not that they are low in number. The problem is Coyotes. The Red wolves began mating with Coyotes and not other Red Wolves. This is why most Red Wolves now are not pure Red wolves. Coyotes look a lot like Red Wolves so the Wolves must be tested to see if they are true Red Wolves or not. If we don't keep these pure Wolves in zoo or such and mate them the Red Wolf will disappear forever.

We the undersigned, would like to express our opinion on Red Wolves. We would wish to show that we care. We think that pure Red Wolves should be keep in captivity and breed. These should be lead back into the wild so that the Red Wolf can live out.

Give Wolves a 2nd Chance. Speak Out Now to Stop the Slaughter

THE GUNS ARE LOADED . . .

and Wyoming wants wolves shot on sight. We only have 3 weeks left to tell the Bush Administration to call off the guns.

Even if you've spoken out to save the wolves recently, please take action again NOW!

A new window of opportunity just opened to save wolves from impending
slaughter -- but we only have 3 weeks left before that window slams shut.

Please speak out now.

Act_Now_To_Protect_Gray_WolvesIII

We've got one last chance to stop the impending massacre of wolves in the northern Rockies.

The Bush Administration has just opened a new public comment period and is inviting you to submit your opinion on its wolf-killing plan today.

Please register your opposition immediately -- even if you spoke out on behalf of wolves this summer.

The Bush Administration's "License to Kill" plan would allow Wyoming and Idaho to gun down nearly 600 wolves -- while they're still on the endangered species list.

Why the rush to kill wolves? So that hunters can have the ease of finding elk in the same places and in the same numbers that they've grown used to. Wolves are being blamed for those few cases where elk herds have shrunk, even though these declines were caused by drought, shrinking habitat and human hunters -- not just wolves.

Put simply, wolves will be exterminated like vermin for doing what they are supposed to do: maintain a healthy ecosystem by preying on elk.

Wyoming wants to "control" and kill as many wolves as the federal government will allow. And the state is prepared to spend a scandalous amount of taxpayer money -- more than $2 million a year -- to get the deed done.

Your Official Citizen Comment is absolutely critical to blocking the coming slaughter.

This summer we generated 100,000 messages of opposition to this cold-blooded plan. In the next 3 weeks, we need to generate another 100,000 messages to stop the killing before it starts, which could be as early as this winter.

Wyoming and Idaho are both planning to use aerial gunning -- as well as baiting and trapping -- to exterminate wolves. Taken together, their plans could drive northern Rocky Mountain gray wolves back to the brink of extinction.

You're the last, best hope for hundreds of wolves. Right now, they may be surrounded and outnumbered, but with thousands of Americans like you rallying to their aid, we can give them a fighting chance and stave off a government-sponsored massacre.

Please submit your Official Citizen Comment today and help us block the Bush Administration’s “Open Fire” order before it is issued this winter.

Sincerely,

Frances Beinecke
