The state of Montana is in the process of adding wolves to their long list of species targeted by trappers. A wolf is a highly intelligent and social sentient being; the amount of torture that trapped individuals are subjected to is immeasurable.
Anyone who has seen the harrowing ordeal suffered by an animal caught 
in a leg-hold trap would be appalled and outraged that trapping is still legal in states like Montana. But many people are simply unaware of the terrible anguish and desperation a trapped animal goes through.
They have never heard the cries of shock and pain when an animal first feels the steel jaws of a trap lock down onto his leg; never looked into the weary eyes of a helpless victim who has been caught in a trap for days and nights on end; never come across a leg that an animal had chewed off in order to escape a deadly fate, nor stopped to think how tormented and hopeless she must have felt to take that desperate action. And they have never seen an animal struggling through her life on three legs.
Compassionate people everywhere must add their voice to the rising call to end this barbarity for good.

Thanks for reblogging and posting this to Anti-hunting in America’s FB page. I hadn’t seen that page yet–it’s good to know about other like-minded people!
Thank you for your support and efforts to stop Montana from adding yet another species to its long list of legal animals to trap! While the current proposal to trap wolves does not include the legal use of snares or body gripping conibear death traps, the impacts of allowing the trapping of wolves will be tremendous for them, all wildlife, companion animals and humans! We urge people to write and voice their opposition. Attend public hearings, too. Email Montana Office of Tourism and let them know your thoughts.

Please help! Visit us on Facebook and at http://www.footloosemontana.org Thanks!
Thanks for the links and additional info on where folks can comment to keep the heat on the FWP. They need to know that the vast majority does not support the gruesome evils of trapping and doesn’t want to see it spreading.
And thanks for all you and the good people at Footloose are doing!
