Thanks to Sited and Blogged for sharing this information on their site. I was shocked and outraged when I watched this video. It was a huge eye opener. Let me explain why I'm so hot under the collar. Hunting in this day and age is considered a sport, not a means of survival. My question to you is where is the sportsmanship in areal hunting? I'm not a hunter myself, but my husband is a huge hunter. As a hunter he completely disagrees with Governor Sarah Palin's techniques in hunting this type of wildlife. Why not make the playing field equal and meet the animal on their own territory. It's one thing to hunt on the ground, but it's a totally different story to hunt any type of animal by air. These are totally unfair hunting practices. I'm actually a huge animal love and also a member of Defenders of Wildlife. I've supported Defenders of Wildlife to save the wolfs for many years now. I've even adopted my own wolf through Defenders of Wildlife. Yup, I'm a tree huger and love anything fuzzy. The hubby and I often butt heads about his hunting and my love of wild life. This video made my skin crawl and made me feel sick to my stomach. This type of action needs to be stopped. Ashley Judd along with Defenders of Wildlife are on a mission to stop this inhuman treatment of animals. The group claims that Palin has proposed a $150 bounty for each dead wolf and approved a campaign to promote aerial hunting. Watch the video and you'll see why I'm so fired up about this terrible treatment of these poor wolfs. If you're as passionate about wild life as I am. Then stop by Defenders Of Wildlife and show your support. If you click on the video you will be directed to a form to fill out. Use this form to contact Governor Palin urging her to end the state’s unfounded aerial hunting program immediately.
Thanks so much for taking time to visit me today.
Hugs
Thank you. I wondered what the Palin versus Judd headlines had been about. Now I know! I was on Ashley's side even when I didn't:)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for you kind words on my post. I love visiting you everyday as well. Thanks for playing along.
ReplyDeleteI have loathed Palin ever since she came onto the scene. Seeing this only makes my blood boil more about her. It completely creeps me out that this woman ever made it to be a candidate for VP of this country when she seems to be so far disconnected from the rest of the world.
ReplyDeleteThis kind of stuff disturbs me so much I cant even watch the video. I already have such bad images in my head I cant bear to see it for real. I will go over to the site and sign up or petition or whatever is necessary.
ReplyDeleteI just saw this on Larry King last night! I'm with you and Ashley who, by the way, was so articulate and intelligent about her position. Gives her lots of credibility.
ReplyDeleteI'm speechless at Palin. Appalled too.
Oh, came here via sits.
thanks for stopping by :-) here to visit and say have a nice day!
ReplyDeleteI think there is more then one way to look at this. I don't think what they are doing is any different then what they do around here in parks to keep the deer population down. I think some times the population needs to be watched to help other animals.
