3 signatures so far! Petition created by: Ruth McD The New Mexico Department of Game and Fish (Game & Fish) proposes to wage war on the State's cougars (a.k.a. mountain lions, pumas, or catamounts) by increasing the quotas on breeding females. That means it will quickly devastate these majestic cats and orphan numerous kittens who will then perish from starvation. 3 have signed so far - help us get to 500. We have achieved 0.6% of our goal. Let's keep going! Sign the petition! Details, Impact and Progress Killing cougars will not make people or livestock safer, nor create more deer, elk, or bighorn sheep for hunters. The Agency's proposal focuses heavily on female cougars, and that means it will quickly devastate these majestic cats and orphan numerous kittens who will then perish from starvation. Based on fear, this proposal fails to use the best information available about how to effectively manage for a sustainable cougar population. We ask the New Mexico Game Commission to reject increased quotas on females. Comments Note: This service is provided as a service to TakingITGlobal Members.
