Thanks to your action and support – Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne was persuaded to propose listing the polar bear as threatened under the Endangered Species Act.
However, the final decision about whether or not to list the polar bear will not be made until the proposal goes through a 12-month review process. In the interim, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is taking requests for public hearings until FEBRUARY 23rd.
They are not required to hold public hearings nor will they unless they are swayed by an outpouring of public concern. For this reason, your activism is needed now in order for the Service to listen to and heed our concerns about the polar bear and its melting habitat.
Please send an email to Rosa Meehan at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Marine Mammals Management program at rosa_meehan@fws.gov.
Together, Alaska Wildlife Alliance members can influence the Service's decision regarding the life-or-death outcome of the great white bear. Send Ms. Meehan an email today.

Dear Ms. Meehan,
Thank you for proposing to list the polar bear as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. The Interior's foresight on this matter is greatly appreciated but as a concerned citizen I am requesting that the FWS hold public hearings here in Alaska and across the lower 48.
The plight of the polar bear and its melting habitat are the sentinels of global warming, causing a vast majority of Americans to be concerned about the future welfare of the great white bear and the Arctic sea ice.
Therefore, I urge you to please allow the American public to participate in the planning process that will determine that fate of the polar bear and the variety other species that are dependent on the most endangered habitat in the world – the Arctic Sea Ice.
Thank you,
