Help Save A National Treasure
Jul 24th, 2007 by Jack Lhasa
As many of you know, there aren’t too many causes that I stand firmly behind. For the most part, I just don’t care. Very few “great travesties” really hit home with me. Well, this is one of them.
Here’s a quote from the site:
“Officials in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service are now seeking public comment on the agency’s proposal to accept Wyoming’s disastrous wolf management plan and to give Idaho and Wyoming vast new powers to kill wolves — even while these magnificent animals remain listed under the Endangered Species Act.”
Here’s what’s happening. The government wants to take these wolves off of the endangered species list. This could work, assuming these states would put a plan into effect that would insure the current wild population would remain healthy and continue to grow.
But, listen to this statement and tell me if you think this is what’s going to happen.
“In January, Idaho Governor C.L. “Butch” Otter said that once the wolves are de-listed, his state would kill all but 100 of the wolves, making the decades-long efforts to strengthen wolf populations in vain.”
Governor Otter has made it clear: These animals will not be protected!
So, if you have any kind of human heart, I think it’s easy to see how much wolves mean to the human race. Wolves are a powerful archetype that still affects the conciousness of every man, woman, and child. Wolves are one of the last creatures in the world that represent true freedom. It’s going to take a lot of people to help keep these animals from going extinct. I don’t think that people can handle a world without wolves.

Liven up, people.
