Animal Welfare Groups sue the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service over Animal Trophies

​worldanimalnews.com/four-animal-welfare-groups-sue-trump-administration-approving-elephant-lion-trophy-imports-behind-closed-doors/

It's becoming more obvious each story I post that the Trump administration has absolutely zero concern for animal welfare. Despite President Trump speaking out against trophy hunting, his administration has allowed trophies to come back on a case to case basis. Instead of involving the public in their decision which would ultimately prove to them that the general populous doesn't agree with trophy hunting, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has allowed them on a case by case basis. For this reason, they are being sued by animal welfare groups who feel as though they've been lied to and excluded from this decision.

By secretly allowing trophies on a case by case basis, they are refusing to identify the problems with trophy hunting and conservation and completely disregarding transparency in the office. It's obvious to me that they could care less about animals and care only for the hunters and game hunters who are lobbying to be allowed to continue to hunt these beautiful creatures under the pretense that it helps the community and conservation.

Here's what I want to know. What happens when suddenly there are no more of these animals left to hunt? How will this benefit Zimbabwe?All of the supposed benefits of trophy hunting will cease entirely when they all disappear. All of this supposed money they receive for their community will stop and they will be left in a worse off position than they are currently in. 

Attention must continue to be brought to this topic. We must continue to lobby against trophy hunting through posting on social media and expressing our concerns directly to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services. 

You can send your concerns and disdain over trophy hunting directly to them through this link www.fws.gov/duspit/contactus.htm . Let your voices be heard! The more attention brought to this, the more pressure they will feel to comply with a federal court ruling that the public be involved in the decision. There's still time to stop this allowance of trophies and save the elephants, lions, and giraffes of Zimbabwe!

HAPPY VEG
