Burrowing Owls Face Eviction from Their Homes

California burrowing owls live in underground burrows. Recent regulations set by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife allow land developers to set up so-called "doors" in the entrances to these underground homes which allow the mammals to leave their burrows but prevent them from re-entering. The true culprits here are of course the developers, who want to build homes on land where burrowing owls dwell.

Help these owls stay safe in their burrows by emailing the director of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, Charlton Bonham, at director@wildlife.ca.gov. Please ask him to suspend the "passive relocation" of burrowing owls in California.

Bears Ears National Monument

Bears Ears National Monument is a landscape of red rock canyons, flowing rivers, and a wildlife habitat for endangered species in the state of Utah. President Obama set this land aside in 2016 as a haven for all Americans (as well as wildlife) to enjoy. Plans from the Trump Administration reveal that it is now working with anti-public lands members of Congress to use this landscape for coal mining, oil and gas drilling, copper mining, off-road vehicle abuse, and vandalism of Native American sacred sites.

Please protest to the Trump Administration by emailing
