Hello dear friends,

I am sorry to bring sad news, but there is another Squirrel Hunt slated for Feb. 22nd in Holley New York. This is the same one we protested last year. Despite letters from the HSUS and the United Supporters of the Fire Dept., a press conference with Sen.Avella and Friends of Animals, over 15,000 signatures on 3 petitions…. they still proceeded to kill squirrels.

There is a bill in the NY legislature to ban animal killing contests, but it is still on the table. Because this horrific event will be happening on the 22nd of February, Edita Birnkrant of Friends of Animals is organizing a protest and will post a FB event page for it this coming week. I would like to invite you to protest and please share this invitation with all your friends and animal groups.

The protest will be outside the Fire Dept in Holley, NY on Feb. 22nd. Time will be announced on the event page.

We are hoping that with a huge group of protestors there will be a need for more police which will hopefully wipe out the profits they make from the hunt. Also, we will be making a statement and gathering attention to help facilitate the passing of the bill to end this cruelty once and for all.

These little squirrels need your help. Here is the link from Friends Of Animals: http://friendsofanimals.org/news/2014/january/end-animal-killing-contests-squirrel-slam-holley-ny

So so sad that this country is still so barbaric.

Peace, Love and Squirrels,
