Wolf
Posted: Tue Feb 21, 2012 8:32 pm
Journey, an intrepid gray wolf from Oregon's lone wolf pack, made history last year when he traveled more than 1000 miles to become the first wolf in California in nearly a century.
Now Journey's family, the Imnaha pack, is under attack again at home, this time by the Oregon Cattleman's Association, which is pushing a law that would allow for the annihilation of the pack.
The Imnaha pack is the first wolf pack in Oregon in more than 60 years. But instead of protecting and celebrating the return of the species, special interests in Oregon are working to eliminate wolves for fear of livestock depredation.
Sure, wolves have attacked livestock; they are predators after all. But the answer isn't to kill them.
Stand up for Journey's family: Urge Oregon state officials to protect wolves in their state and vote down a bill that would allow them to be wiped out ยป
Thanks for taking action!
