Greetings!
This one time mailing is being sent to you because someone forwarded your name as being concerned about the buffalo of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, the last free roaming, wild buffalo.
The Montana Department of Livestock has not stopped killing these majestic creatures so this time we the people are taking our concerns to the Chief of the Forest Service; Secretary of the Interior; and President Clinton!
This petition has these main points we are striving to stress:
1) Federal (public) lands should be used for wild buffalo instead of
being leased at below cost value to a few cows.
2) The financial burden to the taxpayers of the United States regarding the management of these animals is unacceptable. Federal agencies should be using finacially responsible alternatives instead of wasting tax payers monies.
3) The people of the world care for the buffalo and will not continue to
stand by and watch them be slaughtered. There are sound biological
principles that should override egotistic politics.
Please take a moment and sign on at
http://www.wildrockies.org/buffpet
for both electronic sign on as well as to print out physical copies.
A copy of the petition is also attached as a WORD document
Hard copies of signed petitions should be mailed to:
Petition Drive c/o CMCR
POB 7941
Missoula, Montana 59807
Updated info will be posted on the website as time allows.
Again, I thank you for your efforts in this matter. Together we can raise
our voices again and together be heard.
For the Buffalo,
Su
