Why this petition matters

Started by OneProtest

Under current FWC policy, any bear that acts aggressively is killed. This policy does not consider the circumstances that cause bears to act aggressively.

We need to hold the FWC accountable for enforcing the standards and laws put into place to protect both humans and bears. In cases where bear attacks occur due to human negligence. A new policy must be implemented that holds humans accountable for their actions. Bears should not be killed for defending themselves or their cubs.

Contact the FWC Commissioners at the link below and ask that a policy change be made that protects bears from being killed as a result of human error or carelessness.
