Gov. Sarah Palin supports the aerial hunting of Alaskan wolves
The state of Alaska may no longer loom as large in the American consciousness as it did during the presidential election, but enviros won’t let us forget failed GOP veep candidate Gov. Sarah Palin’s support for aerial wolf hunting. Conservation watchdog Defenders of Wildlife this week launched the Eye on Palin Web site to spotlight the moose-hunting Alaska chief exec’s “Anti-Wolf, Anti-Wildlife Agenda”.
“I am outraged by Sarah Palin’s promotion of this cruel, unscientific and senseless practice, which has no place in modern America,” actress and animal activist Ashley Judd said in a press release. “Because she is apparently determined to continue and expand this horrific program, I am grateful that Defenders will aggressively fight to stop her. I am proud to be a part of that effort.”
