Thank you for caring! You prevented
trophy hunters from killing trusting wild bears. During the March, 2007,
Board of Game meeting in Alaska, the board voted to reverse it's earlier
decision to allow a hunt of the McNeil River and Katmai bears on land
adjacent to the sanctuary!
If you haven't already done so, please take a few minutes to watch
our "Don't Let Them Shoot McNeil River Bears" video posted on
YouTube. The bears of McNeil River, and
the nearby Katmai National Park, depended on you, and over 600 people
wrote individual, handwritten letters to the Board of Game members in
support of the bears! That is phenomenal! It is widely accepted that one
individually written letter is worth at least 100 signatures on a
petition, so that is equal to at least 60,000 petition signatures! We needed your help. Even though many of you don't live in Alaska, or
the United States, these are world famous bears and you had a right to
speak up for them. AND YOU DID! We received letters of support from all
over the globe. We can't thank you enough! For more information, see:
