Stop the NJ Bear Hunt! Call Gov at 609 292-6000

There is outrage over a planned bear hunt in New Jersey and critics say the current governor, Phil Murphy, promised to stop the bear hunt and needs to live up to that promise. The action point is simple. Call Governor Phil Murphy at 609 292-6000 and say NO to the bear hunt. Critics say the governor can stop it with an executive order. With wild animal populations being decimated across the globe, now is not the time for weekend warriors to head out in a densely populated state with guns to target bears. For those who believe there is a problem with bears encroaching on homes and lawns, there are non-lethal methods: bear proof garbage cans are very effective. We speak with Angi Metler, the head of the Animal Protection League of NJ and Bill Crain, who garnered publicity after he was arrested for protesting the bear hunt.
