Yet again, I am reminded of the cruelty and selfishness of mankind. Of course, not all of us are intentionally wicked.. some of us only create unintentional harm. Yet those of us who realize the impact we have on the natural world choose to make a change for the better. And we love to encourage others to pay attention and do the same.
I have recieved another letter concerning a creature which is beloved and admired from my point of view. The Wolf. Why is man working so hard to rid the Earth of these beautiful animals? Can we not share the land with those which were placed here by the Creator, just the same as us? Mother Earth is home to all of us, and we should step into the role as Stewards and not Destroyers.
As quoted directly from the Defenders of Wildlife webpages.. “Alaska is the only state that allows private hunters to participate in the cruel and barbaric practice of aerial gunning of wolves. Alaskan wolves can be shot from airplanes — or chased to the point of exhaustion, then shot at close range. Across large areas of Alaska, no wolf is off limits — not even pregnant females. More than six hundred wolves have been killed over the past four winters with plans to target hundreds more in the coming years and open up new areas to aerial control.”
This is not, of course, the only place where wolves are being hunted into extinction. Yet this rips into my heart at this moment, so it is what I will ask from my heart for folks to step up and take action against!
Please take a few moments to visit Defenders of Wildlife today and sign the petition. If you are not in a position to donate that is fine, yet at the least we can let those in power know we will not stand for such wanton murder of our four-legged brothers and sisters we call Wolf. Little does man know what havoc is created when the Balance is destroyed…
This is a subject dear to my heart and I truly admire these social creatures. According to statistics, last year at least 150 wolves were killed, shot down by gunners using low-flying aircraft. At least 10 wolves have been killed this year, and these numbers include pregnant mothers.
Young ones are orphaned and left to starve to death without the protection and teachings given to them by their fallen pack members.
Let Congress know we will NOT tolerate this cruel and
unjust killing of our Wolf brothers and sisters. Not only
is this wrong, it is another example of messing up our
ecosystems and the balance of Nature.
I would like to share Native American Legends and Stories.
If you have stories or legends passed down from your Ancestors,
I would be most happy to have you share them here or post your
comments. We can learn much from the creatures who share this
Earth with us. There is a reason the Creator placed all that
lives upon this planet, and we must remember to respect this.
Yet again, I am reminded of the cruelty and selfishness of mankind. Of course, not all of us are intentionally wicked.. some of us only create unintentional harm.
