Hmmmm?
Californamericans trying to run the world again.
I'm sure there is a good reason to let folks kill 21 bears instead of 8.

I wonder how far the environmental group looked into what is going on up there. It's like nobody wants to kill the fuzzy white bears, unless their trying to eat you and yours.

Californamericans trying to run the world again - BLD
Try Arizona, though I would suspect that a lot of the staff is from the Golden State.
They are not universally loved even in the crucible of perfection that is California - this is the same group that twisted the Forest Circus' nuts and shut down Willamson & choice sections of the PCT. Nuke the fat gay whales for Jesus.

I'm for critter rights and all.. but the polar bear is doomed. An embargo ain't gonna stop the ice from melting. Noah Wiley needs to give it a rest BTW. I think the locals have a clue about how many bears are running around and how many they can afford to lose, without some dumbass who has never set foot there squawking their $.02. (Edit to add: they do actually have an Anchorage office I see... so they may have stepped across the border).
... and ...Why is it that every time a tree gets hugged they blame CA? "Officer! I saw him! He touched that tree where the bathing suit covers! Californian! Arrest him!" 49% of our state is card-carrying, right-wing, fuzzy gay animal-hating, capitalist yahoos ya know?

Whew, I thought this was going to be another"Americans chopping bolts in another country" thread..
for posterity, the article starts: ""U.S. group wants trade ban on Canada for polar bear hunt
Centre for Biological Diversity says Arviat quota increase violates a 1973 convention

Polar bear encounters on the rise in some Nunavut communities
A U.S. conservation group is calling for trade sanctions against Canada because of an increased polar bear hunt quota in the Western Hudson Bay region.
In October, Nunavut’s environment minister increased the quota in the Arviat, Nunavut, area from eight to 21.
The Centre for Biological Diversity claims this increase violates the 1973 Convention on Polar Bears, which was signed by Canada and several other countries.
The group filed a formal request with the U.S. Department of the Interior Tuesday. It is calling for a ban on Canadian wildlife products.
In a release, the organization said the polar bear is on an extinction trajectory because of climate change.
"If we want to keep polar bears in the world, we have to dramatically cut greenhouse emissions and also reduce all the other threats to its survival, including overhunting," said Brendan Cummings with the centre.
The California-based group said Nunavut did not use the best scientific knowledge available in making its decision. The centre also said the hunt is not sustainable..........."
Californians? Whoh, what Roxjok says is true then....

...surly you're kidding, the Polar Bear is going to be finished from Global Warming? So go ahead and kill them all? The same could be said with the same argument for most species on Earth.
Surly? I admit... I was being surly. ;)
