The Hidden Moon (1907) - Lowell Birge Harrison

While I do understand the valiant effort to protect animal rights and ensure exotic animals are getting the care they deserve, and do still encourage the push for change. I stood with those who believed and had evidence for mistreatment that was going on in the organization. However, I don’t particularly agree it should’ve come at the cost of someone’s life. A young child just lost her mother, mind you.

Doxxing, death threats and discrimination are not going to rescue the foxes. Potentially, you may even endanger these creatures further. Would you consider yourself a prestigious animal lover, then, if your efforts put them at risk? What if someone in the organization had done far worse to these creatures in retaliation? There is a difference between being revolutionary and being flat out reckless.

Your violence will mean zero if it contributes nothing at all to the overall cause. In our future, let us learn better that changes should come with productive action instead of hatred that only reverses our progress.

Please do not let the internet make you far too comfortable.

THE ENTIRE WEST IS BEING PUT UP FOR SALE AND I AM BEGGING YOU TO CALL YOUR SENATORS

Trump’s budget bill has many, many things in it, but buried amongst it is the MILLIONS OF ACRES OF PUBLIC LAND FOR SALE.

This is the entirety of the Arizona state forests, the entire Cascades mountain range. Swathes of pristine desert around the national parks in Utah. On the doorstep of Jackson Hole.

THIS BILL IS BIG, BUT IT CAN BE AMENDED AND ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT PASS AS IS please.

If you have ever enjoyed the wilderness, we stand to lose it all forever.

CALLING your senators - NOT JUST IN THE WEST. ALL SENATORS, is CRUCIAL.

Outdoor alliance has a great resource for reaching out.

I don’t have a huge following but please, everywhere I have ever loved, the forests I grew up playing in, the land I got married on, is all at risk and I am begging.
