Please sign Petitions and send Sample Letter to protest the assault on Sweden’s wildlife; please modify and shorten letter for variety.  See Anne’s Facebook Alert for further information, thank you.


Dear Friends,

Sweden is in the process of eradicating their wildlife. Despite the directive from EU,  Sweden continues the killing of bears, lynx, and wolves.  293 bears will be killed; 11 have already been slaughtered, 1 of whom was just a baby.  Please protest and see Sweden trying to ‘trick’ EU on wolf hunt for an example of the dishonesty.



PETITIONS

1. Sweden, Please stop extermination of your Bears
2. Please stop hunting of Lynx in Sweden
3. Protest against the continued hunting of Wolves in Sweden
4. Justice for the Swedish Wolves

SAMPLE LETTER

To Whom It Concerns,

It has come to my attention that you are sanctioning the malicious hunting of bears, and I am requesting you provide immediate relief on behalf of these non-human animals so callously and brutally targeted for destruction by cancelling the hunt without delay. Although I have no evidence of either scenario, I suspect that to establish endorsement, pro-killing enthusiasts and supporters exaggerate potentially dangerous situations and exploit community fear, dispelling any measures to protect wildlife; or the pro-killing groups are over-estimating population numbers, establishing a false threshold met to promote killing to subsequently lower numbers. Indeed, the human animal is deceptively clever and duplicitous in gaining support for the vicious killing of non-human animals.

Furthermore, it is important that you are aware that the brown or grizzly bear, ursos arctos, is considered a threatened species in many locales, and is also listed by the UN Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) as at-risk or endangered depending upon location, and that hunting them could be considered an international crime.

Therefore, I respectfully request that, based on the established brutality involved as well as the potentiality for facilitation of illegal animal commerce and trade, you please vacate any licenses provided and dispense with any further hunting operation against the the bears and instead seek non-lethal interventions as necessary if required. Please leave your reputation free of such brutal, inequitable hunting enterprises, and do not allow economical benefits, hunting sympathizers, and distorted accusations to dominate over ethics and judicious resolutions.

Thank you for your attention to this important issue.

When the earth mother created this planet,
For man and all creatures
A garden was borne, of her beautiful features
A haven of habitats varied,
nurtured with care
Embraced by the blue green of the sea
the blue greys of sky and air
The deep browns of the mountains
The harsh desert sands
icy whitish extremes
of the vast frozen lands
and now she sits watching
her world slip away
the animals she cherishes
nearing their last days.
