Wolf Opponent for McCain's Vice President?

With last week’s primary wins in Texas and Ohio, Senator John McCain is the last Republican presidential candidate standing.

Unfortunately, one name being circulated as a possible pick for his Vice President is someone who has made the slaughter of wolves a personal goal... first-term Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

Wildlife conservation is not a partisan issue. Tell Governor Palin that you believe that no one should support her in a bid for the Vice Presidency or any office until she cleans up her act.

This is the same Sarah Palin who…

-Introduced legislation that could deny more than 50,000 Alaskans the right to vote on aerial killing of wolves and bears.

-Has condoned a $400,000 state-funded propaganda campaign to convince Alaskans to support the state’s shooting of wolves and bears from airplanes -- even though wildlife biologists from around the world say that it is scientifically unfounded.

-Nominated her high school basketball coach a man with no wildlife management experience to sit on the state’s powerful Board of Game.

-Proposed a $150 bounty to spur wolf killing in specified management zones.

Sign our petition and help us turn the national spotlight on Governor Palin’s shameful record.

As the last eight years have demonstrated, leadership counts. Please sign our petition today and let Governor Palin know that dedicated conservationists across America expect better from our elected leaders.
