Oregon Cougars will be slaughtered : HELP SAVE OREGON'S COUGARS
The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is planning to kill THOUSANDS of cougars! They call it management. We call it slaughter.
Oregonians have been subjected to a carefully calculated campaign of misinformation about cougars, in an effort to create fear, hysteria, and loathing toward these animals. Any policy that would allow the systematic killing of nearly HALF THE STATE'S COUGAR POPULATION would certainly become one of the most shameful decisions in Oregon's history.
