Howl for wildlife

[wa_archer]

I have seen this group mentioned in a few posts but wanted to bring it to for front of a topic. The website howl for wildlife.com. It was started as a way for action items relating to wildlife and specifically hunting legislation to be found in one place. From what I have found Robbie Kroger from blood origins assisted in getting it off the ground and the original thinker was from California, sorry don’t have that info. It sets up action items across all states in one place with email and text on updates. Quick and easy submittal of calls to action to send to the proper channels.

Check it out easy way for people to say on top of measures.

I can’t find anything false about the group only a few that are wary about it being wolf in sheep clothing. Sure looks legit to me. Maybe a group for @bigfin to get ahold of and vet for the rest of us.

Charles Whitwam is the creator and he's a friend. I had shared some thoughts and ideas with almost a year ago and am glad to see that he finally got this off the ground and running.

Everyone who hunts should look into this organization. We need to stand together for each other and our heritage of hunting, trapping, and fishing.

they are a solid organization as far as l can tell, the anti hunters hate their guts.

It so easy to do. The American sportsmen need to fight back against these anti hunting organizations. This is the easiest way I've ever seen.

They did just get blasted in Montana for how they lobbied on the constitutional right to hunt and fish, mostly for being considered an "out of state dark money group." I'm not saying they are, but that was the perception during one of the legislative committee hearings today.

Personally, I wish their website was a little more transparent about who they are, who their leadership is, and where they get their money. I won't join until I know more about them and that's made clear.

I think there is plenty of information out there if someone wants to know. My personal opinion is the organization is doing the leg work for hunters and fishermen that wasn't getting done. They describe what the issues are and what bill is coming up for consideration. If one agrees with Howl for Wildlifes position the letter is pre-written and available to add to it. Too many sportsmen ignore issues in other states or issues with game they don't pursue, but in the end, if we don't unite behind our fellow sportsmen on everything that affects our sport then we will eventually lose it ourselves. The anti hunting and fishing folks don't care where the issues are and they're winning.
I respect your decision to confirm before acting and I hope that is what you do.

It's a start. Real advocacy still requires in-person contact with the legislators. Things move fast and by the time there is a public release of information (amendments to a bill, for example), the issue can be drastically different from the previous public release. At least, that's been my experience.

I’ve been a member with them for a year at the end of this month. Have attended a couple zoom meetings in the past to get information on the bear issue that HSUS was pushing in CA. I wouldn’t have even known about the Commission meeting or how to speak at the meeting if it wasn’t for them.

I walked through and saw that they had a booth out here in Phoenix for Camo at the Capitol. Hopefully they got to talk to some of the legislators on the feral horse issue. They’re doing good for conservation. Definitely check them out!
