Humane Society Proposes To Block Arizona’s Management of Big Cats

By Ammoland

Arizona Wildlife Federation Position Statement on the September 25, 2017 Humane Society proposed initiative to ban the killing of all Arizona Cat Species; Mountain Lion, Bobcat, Lynx, Jaguar and Ocelot in Arizona.

Arizona – -(Ammoland.com)-This initiative proposes to permanently remove key wildlife management tools used by Arizona’s professional wildlife managers, which are supported by both the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation and paid for by hunters to ensure healthy populations.

It chooses to prohibit certain methods of wildlife harvest that are legal and carefully regulated. It will permanently remove $200,000 of feline wildlife management funding. I

t ignores the science and population data for Arizona’s wild cat species demonstrating they are present in robust populations.

The Arizona Wildlife Federation recommends that well informed Arizona residents and voters ignore this attempt to pit personal emotion over wildlife science and to reject this proposal based on sound wildlife science and management.
