I am hoping you will help me get the word out to your campus about BOYCOTTING TRAVEL to Alsaka. The USA, Japan, Canada, and Europe are ALL hosting HOWL-INs at shopping malls, airports, travel agencies, state capital buildings and other venues. Currently, hunters track wolves in the snow and use shotguns from helicopters and small planes to kill wolves already acclimated to the presence of planes. In other portions of Alaska, ‘land & shoot’ operations are under way in which wolves are chased by aircraft into open areas. The hunters will then make a quick ski landing nearby, jump out of the planes and open fire on the exhausted wolves with semi-automatic weapons. In March 2004, new areas comprising about 20,000 square miles were opened to wolf ‘control’ with bears added to the list of targeted predators! Wolves are being killed for trophy hunting with quite a hefty payment to Alaska’s Board of Game granting permits to anyone wishing to kill them. This is due to a major change in the law by the Governor who is allowing the sale of these permits. These barbarous acts are accomplished under the guise of restoring moose populations. Moreover, these hunters are also killing baby moose which can further be argued that this is certainly not a subsistence issue. Alaska voters have twice voted this ‘program’ down, yet the Governor and his cronies have decided to ignore their votes.Cheryl Watson, owner of Crystalline Energy Healing Center – and A Light Within Celebrant Services will be co-hosting aHOWL-IN on Saturday April 24th beginning at NOON until closing. 3625 West Bowles Ave #12 in Littleton one block East of Platte Canyon Rd at Middlefield The shop is west of the Albertson’s store……We will host a silent auction of items from dream catchers and Alaskan wolf portrait to other items with proceeds going to Friends of Animals (www.friendsofanimals.org) for the campaign to stop the Governor of Alaska from aerial hunting wolves, bear, and baby moose….Stop by to sign a pledge to boycott travel to Alaska!Cheryl Watson, owner of Crystalline Energy Healing Center and A Light WIthin Celebrant Service, are planning on asking her drumming groups if they would like to join in a continuing Earth Day rhythm from around the world to aid in our efforts to end the insanity in Alaska …We will have music, cookies and beverages along with information about what is happening and why people from around the world are outraged by Governor Murkowski’s unilateral efforts to kill wildlife in Alaska.
