This week, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin's Board of Game wants to target more wolf mothers and pups for slaughter.
Alaska's brutal aerial hunting program has already claimed the lives of more than 800 wolves -- with another season of slaughter about to begin. In June, Palin's state officials drew widespread condemnation for slaughtering 14 wolf pups -each just weeks old- with a shot to the head.
Ignoring the public outcry from the killings, members of the state’s Board of Game -- many hand-picked by Palin -- have decided to continue the killing of wolf pups and mothers by state officials.
It’s all part of the state’s brutal wolf-killing program, and we need your help this Holiday Season to stop it.
