Sarah Palin Champions Barbaric Aerial Hunting of Wolves
From their website: As governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin has championed aerial gunning of wolves and bears. Using powerful images of this needless and brutal practice -- and the indisputable facts about Palin's promotion of it -- we've created a hard-hitting new television ad to educate voters about what Governor Sarah Palin really stands for.

As a dog lover, that's pretty powerful stuff. Is there some context to this? Is there a wolf overpopulation in Alaska? Is this form of hunting actually any less humane than any other?

In my view, shooting such an intelligent animal is fairly inhumane. It's like hunting dolphins. But then it seems silly to say it's OK to shoot moose and deer because they're dumb.

Name one animal as smart as the canine family that humans consume for food.

What is it with Vice Presidents shooting defenseless animals with semi-automatic weapons from vehicles? Didn't Cheney shoot quail in a box from a car with a rifle?

Federal legislation (PDF) does have a loophole for predator control, permitting state employees or licensed individuals to shoot from an aircraft for the sake of protecting "land, water, wildlife, livestock, domesticated animals, human life, or crops." (This doesn't just apply to wolves; coyotes and foxes are sometimes gunned down from aircraft, especially in Western states.) Since 2003, Alaska has issued aerial wolf-hunting permits in select areas where moose and caribou populations are particularly endangered. The idea is that by killing the predators, the airborne gunmen can ramp up the number of moose and caribou that human hunters can take home for supper.

Palin's idea of paying $150 for wolf forelegs never materialized because it would have been an illegal use of bounty payments, which were outlawed in Alaska in 1984.



I don't personally agree with Airborne Wolf Hunting. This is not a humane method of controlling a population. It's unethical in my opinion.

I've got a great idea. Let's set insulated traps with nice tasty treats for the wolves, so they don't get cold. Then we'll have a group of no less than 3 DNR agents come and speaking soothingly to the wolf, to bolster its wolfy self esteem, while it wolfs down the food. We will of course feed it only spinach salad, because more and more wolves are becoming vegetarians and we don't want to offend them. Then, we'll take them back to a nice secure location for their last meal in Alaska. Finally, they will be released to metro SoCal.

I eat what I hunt, and I don't hunt any more. Cause I'm a lousy cook.

This is not an Honorable hunt, if you want to hunt something, hunt an animal that will actively fight back. So you can take part in Natural Selection, by putting your cowardly ass on the line.

Matter of fact that is my answer to torture. If you want to answer for something then you should fight them for it.

Life is life no matter what form it is, once you understand that no life is sacred or safe then you will understand that trying to control life is akin to trying to control a tornado.

Remember while you hunt and shoot something weak for sport, something or someone may be hunting you for sport.

I think David Thompson made more sense during the city meeting than you just did.
