IT IS TIME TO STOP BEAR HUNTING!
Here
Here are the latest updates!
​
Florida's black bears need your help once again!!!
There are two new bills making their way through the legislature. House Bill 87 (HB 87) -Taking of Bears and Senate Bill 632 (SB 632) - Taking of Bears, if these bills pass, it will allow people to kill bears unjustifiably, no questions asked. All anyone would have to do is claim they "felt threatened." This bill opens the door for people to claim self-defense in instances where bears are not a threat.

Stop New Jersey Bear Hunt!
On Wednesday, September 6, 2022, The New Jersey Fish and Game Council approved a bear management plan that allows bear hunting until at least 2028. This decision passed even though bear hunting does NOT reduce bear-human conflicts; state data shows a 32% drop in all bear activity compared to last year (2022), overwhelming public opposition, and proven non-lethal methods that could have been implemented.
Please complete the calls to action listed below.
Contact Governor Phil Murphy and tell him to stop the New Jersey Bear Hunt.
