Trump Overturns Protections for Alaskan Wildlife

The Trump administration has rolled back Obama-era protections for Alaskan wildlife opening up opportunities for trophy hunters. The protections lifted will allow trophy hunters to participate in deceptive and manipulative tactics in order to slaughter families of wolves, coyotes, and bears throughout Alaska.

With the hunting ban overturned, hunters will now be able to;

• Bait Brown & Black Bears with Human Food to lure them to open spaces to be shot and killed
• Hunt hibernating mother bears and cubs in their dens
• Slaughter entire families of coyotes & wolves in their dens
• Utilize dogs to hunt and kill black bears
• Hunt / Shoot Swimming Caribou from boats

By overturning this 2015 ban, hundreds of thousands animals are now susceptible to being shot and killed in Alaska by wealthy hunters who apparently get their thrills out of slaughtering entire families at once. Innocent babies will now be shot and killed as their mother's watch in horror until they too meet their demise. It is completely immoral and despicable that this ban has now been overturned which will see Alaskan wildlife decimated by hunters.

We are talking about entire families being slaughtered. We are talking about utilizing some of the most deceptive and immoral tactics to lure innocent animals to be slaughtered. We are allowing for an entire ecosystem's natural predatory animals to be legally shot and killed. This will inevitably cause an imbalance in the ecosystem which always leads to disastrous results. Every ecosystem relies on both its predators and prey to contribute to a healthy and balanced ecosystem and with hunters now being allowed to slaughter entire families of predators, we are asking for serious trouble.

Trophy hunting is a despicable industry, one that profits solely off of the exploitation of innocent animals. We are talking about animals that in some cases, are endangered or on their way to endangerment. We are talking about allowing scummy human beings to enter wild animal's dens to shoot and kill their entire family. When do our morals come into check? How in the world can the Trump administration not see the error in allowing such disgusting practices? 

Trump has been a disaster for animals and this is yet another example of his lack of commitment to the environment, protecting habitats, and protecting endangered animals. This administration couldn't care less about our planet, instead favouring wealthy hunters. It's sickening.
