Officials slaughter Alaskan baby bears, stealing the future of precious wildlife.

Terrified mama bears and their cubs tried to run for safety as bullets RAINED DOWN from helicopters recently. Despite running frantically for their lives, it was a BLOODBATH – 94 grizzlies were slain by rifle fire, and 11 helpless cubs lost their lives in Alaska! And the orphaned cubs that survived? They’re too young to fend for themselves and will likely die from STARVATION without their mothers! The cruelty just keeps adding up. To make matters even worse, this decision to subject grizzlies to chaos, confusion and violent slaughter was made by the Alaska Board of Game, a board WITHOUT A SINGLE SCIENTIST. Now, we’re worried that senseless and destructive plans like this could be copied in the lower 48 states, even near protected areas like Yellowstone! One way to stop this disaster is the Endangered Species Act, a crucial law that stands between threatened grizzly bears and CERTAIN DEATH. The ESA is preventing brutal hunters and their lobbyists from unleashing helicopters, vicious hunting dogs and inhumane traps on this iconic species in the lower 48 states. That’s why the trophy hunting lobby and its Big Polluter allies are working nonstop to weaken the ESA. If they succeed, critical protections for wildlife would be rolled back AND local communities would also pay the price. Big Polluters are counting on their well-funded lobby and junk lawsuits to open up grizzlies’ habitats for mining, drilling, and logging. That could push fragile ecosystems to their breaking points, contaminate crucial water resources that local communities rely on and accelerate major climate consequences! We need an immediate public outcry to help us fight back, strengthen the Endangered Species Act and to protect our wildlife, local communities and our fragile planet. But our response deadline is at 11:59 p.m. TONIGHT, and we’re still missing input from 75 activists, including you.
