Save Polar Bears from Trophy Hunters
Despite declining populations, polar bears can still be hunted as “trophies”.
Numerous studies have now shown the effects of warming temperatures on declining polar bear populations and ice habitats — from drowning and starving to reports of cannibalism among bears. Yet Polar bears are still the only marine mammals allowed to be trophy hunted and brought into the U.S.
US sport hunters can still apply for a permit to kill a polar bear in Canada and bring their “trophy”— a polar bear’s head or hide — back into the States. Please contact your federal representative and senators and urge them to support The Polar Bear Protection Act.
Close the polar bear trophy hunting loophole
