1. Help End the War on Wildlife

The Sacramento Bee recently published an expose highlighting the problems with Wildlife Services, possibly the biggest threat to wildlife, which kills more than 5 million animals every year while tax payers unwittingly foot the bill. 

Please send a letter to your rep asking them to defund Wildlife Services lethal control methods.

2. Help Animals at Lagoon Amusement Park

Lagoon Amusement Park, located in Farmington, Utah, has a variety of animals and an abysmal track record of caring for them, including a long history violations of the Animal Welfare Act. Animal advocates  in the area are protesting in order convince Lagoon to relinquish the animals to rescues and sanctuaries that can meet their needs. 

Please sign the petition telling Lagoon Amusement Park to do what's best for the animals and let them go.

3. End Cruel Pig Lab at the University of Texas

The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHSCH) currently uses live pigs to train anesthesiologists through its Biannual Hands On Ultrasound Guided Regional Anesthesia Workshop. These pigs are repeatedly subjected to having needles and catheters placed in their veins, despite the fact that alternative methods to teach and practice these procedures are readily available. 

Please send a letter to UTHSCH asking them to stop using live animals to train students.
