Developed in the post-frontier era, the NAMWC helped put a stop to wanton wildlife destruction in an era where many species were being hunted and trapped ruthlessly to the brink of extinction. George Wuerthner, an ecologist and former hunting guide with a degree in wildlife biology, takes the debate a step further. Smith and Donald A.
I get that you’re really angry, I mean, he was a popular lion and yes, his cute widdle cubs will probably die to, but I can’t help feeling you’ve kind of missed the point a bit, and well, ending all hunting in Africa will not solve much and maybe make things worse and… No, no, I’m not a hunter. I’m sorry.
Canadian fisheries ministry representative Garry Stenson said the hunt “is humane, well regulated and sustainable” and that new rules for the hunt were under review to strengthen inspections, monitoring and enforcement of animalwelfare rules. The article does say that the Inuit communities would have special exemptions.
They also want an exemption for hunt kennels which do not breed dogs for commercial purposes. Fine Gael and rural Fianna Fáil backbenchers have called for greyhound breeders to be exempt because the industry is already regulated by existing legislation.
In responding to Suzie’s post defending wildlife rehabilitation I began to think again about the areas in which animal rights and animalwelfare overlap with the field of conservation, and the ways in which they don’t. And people that work in either conservation or animalwelfare tend to like animals.
The International Fund for AnimalWelfare ( IFAW ), is a non-profit organization working to save animals in crisis worldwide, to help protect our oceans’ whale population. The number of whales each country will have permission to hunt is yet to be determined, and may ignore estimated sustainable whaling limits.
A vegetarian who is regularly critical of the NRA and much of the hunting community, he is a passionate advocate for doing away with the more brutal versions of blood-sport, including aerial hunting, which Palin supports. What a complete and utter whore (and no, I'm not talking about the bible thumping wingnut from Alaska).
The endangered animals are often hunted for their ivory tusks. The International Fund for AnimalWelfare will say more than 4,000 ivory products have been listed on eBay. An eBay spokesman said the move was the best way to help African and Asian elephants.
I’m glad that Obama didn’t select Charles Stenholm, a former Texas congressman with a long history of defending animal abuse, who had sought the position with support from the factory farming industry. As Iowa’s Governor, Tom Vilsack took steps to protect animals, including vetoing a bill that allowed dove hunting.
Both groups will be protesting the seal hunt using the Olympic torch ceremony as the backdrop. PETA and the International Fund for AnimalWelfare (IFAW) are holding a joint news conference this week, and I would like to offer you an exclusive advance scoop on it.
They do appear to wish to put an end to what they believe are the worst abuses of institutionalized animal agriculture, such as gestation crates and veal crates, but that's hardly a call to end animal agriculture. The HSUS isn't even anti-hunting ! Parker uses the term "anti-modern farming activists," which is new to me.
Latimer refers to his previous two posts where he has "documented the ethical and moral shallowness of the 'animal rights' credo itself, which is based more on an anti-human self hatred, taking the form of a 'moral' squeamishness concerned more with stamping out human 'cruelty,' no matter what the social or economic costs might be.
To the Editor: Re “ To Revive Hunting, States Turn to the Classroom ” (front page, March 8): Shame on West Virginia if it approves a bill that allows hunting education classes in public schools to become law. We should not use public schools to try to reverse the inexorable decline in the “sport” of hunting. March 8, 2008
My post last week where I defended game hunting as a conservation tool has, unaccountably, encountered a certain amount of push back. Who would have thought that a post defending hunting game in general would have not been universally acclaimed? I will address two of them in the new year, namely, “Is hunting moral at all?”
Here is a good article about trying to link religion with animalwelfare. As far as Christianity, I still don't see how at least American Christianity can be coupled with helping animals. But, taken as a whole, they will vote for a gun-toting, moose hunting, tax cheating, serial liar just so long as she opposes abortion.
The interests of those working for conservation and those working for animal rights and animalwelfare don’t always perfectly align like you might think they do. The answer should be obvious to anyone familiar with wildfowl hunting in the US and the film Jerry McGuire – money.
