Theresa Chaze: Randal Massaro: Protecting Our Nation's Bear Population

Theresa Chaze: Randal Massaro: Protecting Our Nation's Bear PopulationA
FOR THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, THE ARE TOTALLY LEFT OUT IN THE DARK AS TO IS GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENE'S, ANOTHERWORD'S WITH GOVERNMENT AGENCIE'S LIKE ( THE DEPT OF INTERIOR, OPERATED BY A 5 TH GENERATION CATTLE RANCHER NAMED KEN SALAZAR ) AND THE MEAT & POULTRY LOBBYIST'S IN WASHINGTON DC , ALONG WITH THE CATTLEMANS ASSOCIATION'S, THE NRA-NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION, THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE, THE US FOREST SERVICE, INDEPENDENT TRAPPING COMPANIE'S, LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIE'S, FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE'S AND FISH AND GAME WARDEN'S, OF COURSE NOT THE FORGET THE HUNTER'S AND POACHER'S TOO.
LET'S TALK ABOUT AMERICA'S DIRTY LITTLE SECRET,
LET'S TALK ABOUT AMERICA'S OTHER WAR,
LET'S TALK ABOUT AMERICA'S WAR ON IT'S WILDLIFE,
THE WAR THAT OUR GOVERNMENT IS NOT TELLING YOU ABOUT.
AFTERALL, THE POLITICIAN'S SAY THAT THEY DONT HAVE ANY MONEY FOR SENIOR CITIZEN'S, FOR OUR MILITARY, FOR EDUCATION, FOR OUR VETERAN'S, FOR OUR SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM, BUT ? YET , THEY LITERALLY HAVE MILLION'S OF TAX DOLLAR'S TO SPEND ROUNDING UP WILD HORSE'S AND BURRO'S, TRAP AND KILL MTN LION'S, BEAR'S, COYOTE'S, WOLVE'S, PRARIE DOG'S,ALMOST ANYTHING WITH FUR ON IT, IS FAIR GAME.
AND THAT IS THE AGENCIE'S THAT WE DEPEND ON TO PROTECT OUR WILDLIFE, INSTEAD THEY ARE THE ONE'S SLAUGHTERING IT, AND WITH OUR TAX DOLLAR'S PAYING FOR IT.
AFTERALL , ISNT IT OUR WILDLIFE,? ISNT OUR TAX DOLLAR'S,?
DID'NT WE ELECT THESE POLITICIAN'S TO REPRESENT THE MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, THIS IS STILL A DEMOCRACY, ISNT IT ?
IF THESE POLITICIAN'S CANT DO THEYRE JOB, AND REPRESENT THE PEOPLE THAT PUT THEM IN OFFICE, THEN IT'S HIGH TIME WE PUT PEOPLE IN OFFICE THAT WILL REPRESENT THE PEOPLE,( WE THE PEOPLE, OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, AND FOR THE PEOPLE,)
IN THE END , IT 'S ALL ABOUT POWER, MONEY, GREED, AND CORRUPTION.
THE FACT THAT THIS FORMER LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENT KNOW'S WHAT IS GOING ON, SINCE I WAS ON THE INSIDE AND PRIVY TO ALOT OF INFORMATION.
I FEEL THAT IT IS MY INTEREST, THE AMERICAN PUBLIC'S INTEREST, AND IN THE BEST INTEREST OF OUR ECONOMY,  AS BEING A UNION REPRESENTATIVE THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THAT KEEPING OUR WILDLIFE ALIVE MEAN'S TOURISM, ALOT OF TOURISM, FROM THE MILLION'S TO THE BILLION'S BY MANY STUDIE'S, AND YET IF YOU LISTEN TO GROUP'S LIKE THE SAFARI CLUB AND OTHER PRO HUNTING GROUP'S THEY SAY THAT THEY ARE THE TRUE CONSERVATIONIST'S.
WELL, MY FRIEND'S, IF YOU BELIEVE THAT, THEN I'VE GOT AN ICEBERG I WISH TO SELL YOU REAL CHEAP IN DEATH VALLEY.
IVE GOT VIDEO'S, PICTURE'S, TESTIMONIAL'S, FACT'S AND FIGURE'S TO PROVE THAT IT MAKE'S BETTER SENSE AND BETTER BUSINESS TO KEEP OUR WILDLIFE ALIVE AND THRIVING.
SURE , WHILE HUNTER'S AND HUNTING TAG'S BRING AN AN ESTIMATED 2 TO 3 MILLION DOLLAR'S, IT IS NO COMPARISON TO WHAT EUROPEAN, ASIAN, SOUTH AMERICAN, CANADIAN, AUSTRALIAN, AND OTHER TOURISM BRING'S IN , NOT BY A LONG SHOT.
EXCUSE ME, BUT HUNTER'S WOULD HINT THEYRE OWN MOTHER'S IF THEY COULD.
WE HAD 30,000 GRIZZLY BEAR'S HERE IN CALIFORNIA UNTIL 1922 WHEN THE LAST ONE WAS SHOT IN TULARE COUNTY, WE HAD CALIFORNIA GRAY WOLVE'S HERE ALONG WITH MEXICAN GRAY WOLVE'S HER TOO, ALL BUT GONE NOW.
THE ANTELOPE VALLEY HERE IN CALIFORNIA WAS NAMED AFTER THE ANTELOPE THAT STRETCHED FOR MILE'S, NOW YOU ARE LUCKY IF YOU SEE ONE.
WE USED TO HAVE WILD HORSE'S THAT USED TO COME UP FROM SAN DIEGO COUNTY ALL THE WAY TO SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY AND RIVERSIDE COUNTY, NOW JUST A HANDFUL REMAIN.
NO, MY FRIEND'S I WILL SHOW YOU THE PROOF, BUT THE POLITICIAN'S ARE LIKE THOSE 3 MONKEY'S--SEE NO EVIL-SPEAK NO EVIL AND HEAR NO EVIL.
I WILL BRING YOU OUT ON A BEAR RESCUE CALL, I WILL BRING YOU OUT ON A WILD HORSE ROUND UP AND A BURRO ROUND UP.
BUT GO AHEAD, AND CUDDLE UP TO THE HUNTER'S AND THEYRE FRIEND'S, AND SEE HOW MUCH MONEY YOU ARE REALLY GOING TO PUT IN YOUR REVENUE COFFURE'S, AFTER ALL THE LEGAL LAWSUIT'S, STATE, LOCAL, FEDERAL AND OTHERWISE.
NOT TO MENTION THE VERBAGE IN ALL THE NATIVE AMERICAN TREATIE'S AND RESOLUTION'S---ALREADY NOTICED BY THE UNITED NATION'S AND THE GENEVA CONVENTION.
NOW LET'S TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION OF A BOYCOTT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA BY UNION'S, NATIVE AMERICAN INDIAN TRIBE'S, CANADIAN INDIAN TRIBE'S, WILDLIFE ORGANIZATION'S FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD.
IF YOU DONT THINK THAT THIS ISSUE IS THAT SERIOUS, TRY ME.
SET UP A MEETING WITH WILDLIFE GROUPS', NATIVE AMERICAN'S, AND UNION'S AND REALLY SEE HOW SERIOUS IT IS.
IT'S OUR WILDLIFE, IT'S OUR TAX DOLLAR'S, IT'S OUR JOB'S. AND YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT US.
IM RANDAL MASSARO,
UNITED STATE'S REPRESENTATIVE FOR UNION MEMBER'S FOR THE PRESERVATION OF WILDLIFE.
OUR ORGANIZATION HAS MEMBER'S AND STATUS QUO FROM ALL UNION'S, TO STAND UP AND SAY ENOUGH KILING OF OUR WILDLIFE,AND WASTEFUL SPENDING OF OUR TAX DOLLAR'S TO SUPPORT THE KILLING , YOU VOTE TO KILL OUR WILDLIFE, YOU KILL HUNDRED'S , IF NOT THOUSAND'S OF JOB'S UNION AND NON-UNION ALIKE.
THE CHOICE IS YOUR'S, YOU HAVE TO LIVE WITH YOUR CHOICE.
IT MAY ALSO BE YOUR DESTINY AS A POLITICIAN.
THANK YOU

Manitoba Biologist Darryl Hedman is continually monitoring Hudson Bay Polar Bears in an attempt to evaluate Global Warming impacts on the Bears survival chances in the 21st century....Findings include: 1)pregnant females seek denning sites at the edge of woods and then dig a single or multi-chambered den into the deepest snow drifts..........2) females go without food from end of December or January through end of March.............3)1 to 3 cubs are born in March and the mother bear then leads them to the sea to hunt seals and fish.......4)warming temperatures have led to fires which are destroying dens,,,,warm temps are melting dens as well--killing bears and cubs in midwinter............5)those bears that escape den collapse exert death inducing energy reserves in an attempt to rebuild dens............6) Insulated den temperature is just below freezing level even though outside temps can be -30 degrees centigrade...........7)female bears neither defecate or urinate during hibernation--dens are remarkably clean.........8)mother bears will move a den if heavy snows pile up to the point where oxygen depletion becomes a reality-somehow this expenditure of energy does not lead to death..............9)roughly 1000 Polar bears exist in Hudson Bay with most females denning south of Churchill........................10)the farther inland a bear dens, the higher the chance of energy reserves being depleted prior to getting back to the sea..................11)Bears seek the same spawning grounds for food year after year............12)Wolves will try to prey on young cubs

Climate change threatens to disrupt the denning habits of polar bears

 By Ed Struzik, edmontonjournal.com


I am standing on the edge of a frozen lake 80 kilometres inland from the west coast of Hudson Bay. It is –33 C. The skies are clear and the bright sun is hovering over the horizon, lighting the spindly forest around us with that alpenglow that makes everything look surreal. Twenty metres away is the polar bear den we have been looking for, nestled into the side of a south-facing hill.


Polar Bear with newly born pups emerges from winter sleep


Helicopter pilot Justin Seniuk keeps the engine running as Manitoba biologists Darryl Hedman and Vicki Trim and I crunch through the waist-deep snow, crossing days-old tracks of playful cubs zigzagging around us. Having worked on polar bears since 1986, Hedman could make light of what we are about to do; he is fairly certain the female and her cubs have recently left. The tracks that led us to the site indicate this family is on the long march to Hudson Bay.

Hedman isn't taking any chances, though. He has his gun loaded and the safety off. When he lets out a shout, it is loud enough to startle Trim and me as we look over his shoulder, searching, as he is, for any movement inside. There is none we can see. Still, I can't stop thinking of the story that Ian Stirling, a University of Alberta scientist, told me several years ago when he was doing exactly what we are doing now. In his case, he didn't notice there was a polar bear standing in a second chamber of the den until his eyes adjusted to the dim light inside.

Mother Bear leading her cubs to the sea


"Unreal," says Hedman as he does his best to squeeze into the den a few minutes later. "Imagine spending a winter in a space like this where you can barely move and not have any food to eat or water to drink."

Since British explorer Samuel Hearne first described the denning behaviour of polar bears in this part of the world back in 1795, nothing much has changed. "The females that are pregnant seek shelter at the skirts of the woods," he wrote, "and dig themselves dens in the deepest drifts of snow they can find. There they remain in a state of inactivity, and without food, from the latter end of December or January till the latter end of March: at which time they leave their dens and bend their course toward the sea with their cubs."

Biologist Darryl Hedman examining abandoned den

Now that climate change is rapidly warming this part of the world, this centuries-old tradition may be in peril. Forest fires, which were once rare in this part of the world because it has been too cold and wet, have already destroyed dozens of dens in the past decade. Milder winters are also resulting in snow dens collapsing and killing bears and their cubs in some cases.

Building new ones, according to research by scientist Evan Richardson while he was a graduate student at the University of Alberta, could further tax the polar bear's already strained energy supplies.Not all dens are created in the same way. Some, like this one that I crawl into, has been dug into a peat bank. Like many dens, it has a single chamber just big enough to allow a female to nurse one or two and, in very rare cases, three cubs. Others have as many as three or four chambers to accommodate more adventurous cubs or a two-year-old that hasn't been chased off by its mother.

site of Polar Bear den


Most bears den in snow caves on land, but some animals in Alaska den on the sea ice.
The common denominator in these cases is the quality of the snow.

"Like Goldilocks' bed, snow has to be just right, not too soft and not too hard," says Andrew Derocher, a University of Alberta scientist who devotes a chapter to the art of polar bear denning in his book Polar Bears, A Complete Guide to Their Biology and Behavior. Fresh snow, Derocher points out, lacks structure and strength. Year-old snow may be too compact to allow enough oxygen in.

Once I get over the fear that there is a bear waiting for me, I am struck by how warm, snug and remarkably clean the den is inside.
Considering how much snow and peat moss there is insulating these chambers, it is not surprising that the temperature inside is just below the freezing mark when it –30C outside or colder.
In his pioneering study on polar bear denning in the 1960s, Dick Harington, the first scientist to study polar bears in Canada, dropped a thermometer into two active dens and found that temperatures inside were 7.8 C and 21 C warmer than they were outside.

Dens are clean because the female can go several months without defecating or urinating.Bears also move their dens throughout the winter when snowstorms pile things up to the point where oxygen is scarce.Harington's study on polar bear dens in the Canadian Arctic between 1961 and 1964 is remarkable not only because he did it by dogsled over three years, but because he somehow managed to find 113 dens. He attributes his success to the Inuit, who helped him identify the sites.

No one knows exactly how many dens there are in the Churchill region; Hedman is still discovering new ones on the spring surveys he started doing several years ago. But scientists such Stirling, Derocher and Nick Lunn, who have studied this population of 1,000 or so animals for decades, believe 90 per cent of the pregnant females den in a relatively small area 40 to 80 kilometres south of Churchill, from the Nelson River east to the Ontario border.
Twenty years ago, that meant nearly 200 bears in a good year. But now that the bears' energy reserves are being taxed by a shorter ice season that limits their ability to put on fat, the numbers are much lower.

The dens of female polar bears of Churchill aren't quite as clustered as they are in Kongs Karls Land in Svalbard, the northernmost part of Norway, where as many as 25 dens have been counted in a small area. But they are close enough together to warrant the attention given by Richardson's study, which was done under the supervision of Stirling and the collaboration of Bob Kochtubadja of Environment Canada.

The historical forest fire data for northern Manitoba are scant. But if climate models are correct, says Mike Flannigan, University of Alberta fire and vegetation specialist, one could expect to see more forest fires in the denning region of western Hudson Bay. All it would take, he says, is fuel, which there is plenty of; a source of ignition, which in this case is most likely to come from lightning, and warming temperatures, which is pretty much a given for most parts of Northern Canada.

Why Churchill's polar bears choose sites so far inland when bears in Svalbard hunker down in clusters as close as 10 metres from the edge of shore remains a mystery.The fear of hungry males tracking them down could be a factor. So may be sea ice patterns and snow conditions. Hunting by humans might also have played into the bear's decision-making. Up until 1957, when the Hudson's Bay post at York Factory closed, First Nations people living on the coast harvested them for fur and trade.

Big as polar bears can be, pregnant females pay a price for denning so far inland. When they come off the ice in late June or early July, most pregnant females have so much fat stored in their bodies that it sometimes looks as if they can hardly walk. By the time they settle into their dens, however, most haven't eaten for four months and it will be another four before they get their first seal. Some of them are little more than a bag of bones by the time that happens.
The good news is that some dens in this part of the world are passed from one generation to the next so all that most polar bears need to do is clean up whatever debris may have accumulated from one year to the next.

How a young female bear instinctively knows where to go after being out of the den for four or five years is one of the enduring mysteries of polar bear science. They are just roly-poly cubs when they emerge, and at least four years will pass before they are ready to reproduce. Yet like salmon that return to the same spawning stream after a year living in the ocean, these bears instinctively know where to go to find the place they were born.

In a study of tree rings that have been damaged by the digging done by pregnant females, Stirling has found evidence to suggest this hand-me-down practice has been going on for more than 100 years in some cases, and probably longer.Given the distances these bears have to travel, one would expect they would follow a relatively straight line. Yet as we followed the tracks of another family group along the Nelson River the next day, it was clear this is not the case. At one point, the bears made a full circle before heading back in the direction they were supposed to be going.

It seemed absurd they would plow through shoulder-deep snow in an open meadow rather than follow the solid path of a frozen creek heading north. At the rate this family group was progressing, Hedman figured it would take them three days or more to get to the coast.

The long walk is not the only challenge these family groups face in late winter, as we saw first-hand when we picked up a set of wolf tracks in pursuit of another family group. There is no shortage of wolves in northern Manitoba, and based on the experiences that Hedman and his colleagues have had over the years, the animals aren't shy about trying to take down a young adult.

While this one wolf wouldn't have a hope of taking down a female protecting her cubs, a pack of five or more animals would have a much better chance.Cubs, Hedman points out, just don't have the energy to walk or run for an unlimited time. All the wolves need to do is distract the mother long enough for one or more of them to get at one of the defenceless cubs. "We don't know how often this happens, but I've seen tracks which suggest that it may not be all that uncommon. It's something that we are going to be watching for in future surveys."

Surveys such as this one are complicated by bitterly cold weather and wild windstorms that seem to come out of nowhere in western Hudson Bay. Base camp for us was a one-room cabin on the coast that was heated by a single wood stove. We don't dare to walk to the outhouse at night for fear we will run into one of the bears that we know are around us from the fresh tracks we see.
Justin Seniuk, however, has no choice but to venture into the dark when the generator he is using to heat the helicopter's engine keeps breaking down.

Back at home in Edmonton, I sort through the photos I have taken on the trip. I see one that looks like nothing more than a stand of trees close to another den site we had investigated.I figure I must have taken this photo by accident. But just as I am about to delete it, I see it shows tracks in the forest. I follow the tracks and discover they lead to the back end of a polar bear, which is mostly hidden in the trees."Can't be," I say to myself. I study it more. There is no doubt about it. It is a polar bear and it was obviously hiding in the trees when we were crawling into that den.

The Montana Division of Fish, Wildlife & Parks is taking public comments RIGHT NOW UNTIL JUNE 25 on their terrible proposal to expand their already hideous wolf massacre policy to include the persecution and killing of more wolves over a wider area of the state, right up to the borders of Yellowstone National Park.

Please click on this link right now (Comment Deadline is JUNE 25!): http://fwp.mt.gov/hunting/publicComments/2012_13proposedWolfHunt.html 
and tell Montana wildlife officials what you think of their expanded wolf massacre proposal AND how it will effect where you spend your tourist dollars.

And after you do that please get more wolf friends to sign and circulate the Protect America's Wolves! petition at: Protect America's Wolves!

More actions coming.

Thanks, for the wolves.

TO LT. GOVERNOR GAVIN  NEWSOM
C/O CHRIS GARLAND.

FIRST OF ALL , LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF.
I AM RANDAL MASSARO, FORMER GREENPEACE REP IN SOUTHERN CALIF, AND NOW UNITED STATE'S REPRESENTATIVE FOR UNION MEMBER'S FOR THE PRESERVATION OF WILDLIFE.
BASICALLY ,AN UNDERGROUND WILDLIFE ORGANIZATION THAT BEGAN IN 1970.
OUR MISSION, TO INFLUENCE THE TRAVEL AND TOURISM INDUSTRY IN EUROPE, SOUTH AMERICA, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND,AND OTHER COUNTRIE'S TO NOT PATRONIZE  ( CITE'S)COUNTIE'S) STATE'S) COUNTRIE'S) THAT HAVE NO RESPECT OR REGARD FOR WILDLIFE, AND THAT PROMOTE TRAPPING AND,MERCILESS HUNTING OF OUR WILDLIFE.
TO BRING ATTENTION TO THE PUBLIC AS TO WHO AND WHAT IS BEHIND AMERICA'S DIRTY LITTLE SECRET, AMERICA'S OTHER WAR, AMERICA'S WAR ON IT'S WILDLIFE!
I DONT NEED TO TELL YOU THAT LITERALLY HUNDRED'S OF THOUSAND'S, IF NOT , MILLION'S IS SPENT EVERY YEAR BY TOURIST'S COMING TO CALIFORNIA AND THE UNITED STATE'S TO NOT ONLY ENJOY OUR VAST VARIETY OF THING'S TO DO, BUT TO SEE OUR FOREST'S,OUR NATIVE AMERICAN CULTURE, AND YES ( OUR WILDLIFE )TOO.
NOT ALL TOURIST'S LIKE TO LEAVE THEIR MONEY AT THE CASINO'S.
WHILE STUDIE'S SHOW THAT HUNTER'S BRING IN REVENUE BY BUYING HUNTING TAG'S IN CERTAIN AREA'S RANGING BETWEEN 2 AND HALF MILLION TO 3 MILLION DOLLAR'S---BUT ECO TOUR'S WILDLIFE TOUR'S BRING IN AN ESTIMATED 30 TO 75 MILLION DOLLAR'S, BECAUSE WHOLE FAMILIE'S COME AND ENJOY SPENDING MONEY, WHILE HUNTER'S COME FOR A FEW DAY'S , BAG THEYRE ANIMAL AND LEAVE---WHICH IS BETTER BUSINESS SIR ??
IT DOES'NT TAKE A SCHOLAR TO FIGURE THIS ON OUT.
ARE YOU AWARE THAT THE NUMBER ONE COMMENT THAT TOURIST'S SAY WHEN THEY GET BACK HOME TO EUROPE, ASIA, SOUTH AMERICA. ( QUOTE ) THAT THEY GOT TO FEED A WILD BURRO, OR THEY SEEN A BEAR LUMBERING IN THE FOREST , OR SEEN WILD HORSE'S ROAMING FREELY ON TH E RANGE, OR A BEAR, WOLF, OR BUFFALO.
NOW THAT'S USING YOUR VAST NATURAL RESOURCE'S AND TURNING INTO JOB'S.---NOT KILLING IT!
AND OF COURSE , OUR NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE PLAY'S A VERY IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE TOURIST INDUSTRY AS WELL.
THE FACT IS THAT OUR GOVERNMENT AGENCIE'S THAT ARE WAGING A CRUEL AND MERCILESS WAR ON OUR WILDLIFE AND WITH TAX PAYER DOLLAR'S PAYING FOR IT.---( I'VE GOT THE PROOF IF YOU WANT TO SEE IT?
I HAVE PHOTOS, VIDEO'S, TESTIMONIAL'S,AND FORMER BLM AGENT'S AND INSIDE INFORMANT'S OF MINE THAT I WORKED WITH WHEN I HAD FEDERAL CLEARANCE  AND WORKED IN LAW ENFORCEMENT ( GANG'S AND DRUG CARTEL'S).
I AM USING MY EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE, AND YES MY INSIDE CONTACT'S ( FEDERAL AND OTHERWISE ) TO  BRING OUT AND EXPOSE THE TRUTH ABOUT WHO IS BEHIND THE WASETEFUL SPENDING OF TAX PAYER DOLLAR'S.
TO NAME A FEW:
THE DEPT OF THE INTERIOR ( RUN AND OPERATED BY A 5TH GENERATION CATTLE RANCHER "KEN SALAZAR")
THE CATTLE RANCHING LOBBYIST'S AND MEAT INDUSTRY,
THE SPORT HUNTING LOBBYIST'S AND THEYRE ALLIE'S IN WSHINGTON AND ABROAD.
THE DEPT OF ENERGY.
THE DEPT OF AGRICULTURE.
THE DEPT OF US FOREST SERVICE
THE NATIONAL  PARK SERVICE,
THE SAFARI CLUB INTERNATIONAL,
CALIF FISH AND GAME
FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE'S
INDEPENDENT TRAPPING COMPANIES THAT CALIF FISH AND GAME PAY'S TO DO THEYRE DIRTY WORK.
THE AGENCY IN CHARGE OF SENDING OUR CALIF WILDLIFE OVER THE BORDER'S TO OTHER STATE'S THAT HAVE CONTRACT'S WITH THE STATE OF CALIF  TO TAKE OUR WILDLIFE WHEN WE WISH TO GET RID OF THEM--( OUR MONEY -OUR WILDLIFE )
WHY NOT ESTABLISH OUR OWN PRESERVE'S, OR BETTER YET HAVE NGO'S ( NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATION'S FOR THE ROUND UP AND CAPTURE OF OUR WILDLIFE
LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIE'S, ROAD KILL, POISON'S,ENCROACHMENT, DEPRIDATION PERMIT'S ISSUED FOR ANIMAL'S THAT ARE NOT A PUBLIC NUISANCE,
THE USE OF HELICOPTER'S ,ATV'S, AIRPLANE'S ,ETC.
ILLEGAL BAITING , POACHING, AND MANY OTHER FORM'S OF DISRUPTING WILDLIFE HABITAT.
AFTERALL, WHO IS ENCROACHING ON WHO ?
WE ARE PLAYING GOD, JUDGE, JURY, EXECUTIONOR AND MOTHER NATURE.
THESE ANIMAL'S GOT ALONG JUST FINE WITHOUT US FOR HUNDRED'S OF YEAR'S, NOW BY SOME DEVINE RIGHT, WE NEED TO HUNT THEM TO THE POINT OF NO RETURN OR THEY ARE GOING TO OVER POPULATE, MOTHER NATURE HANDELED IT PERFECTLY FINE WITHOUT US FOR A GOOD MANY YEARS, SO THAT EXCUSE ( PARDON ME FOR SAYING, HAS GROWN A BEARD AND IS WORN OUT AND HAS NOT AN OUNCE OF SUBSTANCE OR A LEG TO STAND ON.
IT BOIL'S DOWN TO THIS, PLAIN AND SIMPLE, IF OUR POLITICIAN'S ARE GOING TO GIVE AN ALLOUT PASS FOR SPORT HUNTER'S,LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIE'S, AND EVERY GOVERNMENT AGENCY TO TRAP,ROUND UP,HUNT, AND KILL OUR WILDLIFE ( AND WITH OUR TAX DOLLAR'S FOOTING THE BILL.  THEN MAYBE IT'S TIME THAT OUR PRESENT POLITICIAN'S THAT WE THE AMERICAN PUBLIC HAVE ELECTED AND OUT IN OFFICE TO REPRESENT US , SHOULD BE RECALLED , RETIRE, OR AN INVESTIGATION SHOULD BE PROMPTED AS TO WHY ONLY 6 % OF PEOPLE AND GROP'S THAT SUPPORT HUNTING AND TRAPPING HAVE THE ULTIMATE POWER OVER THE 91% OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC THAT DO NOT WISH TO HAVE OUR WILDLIFE TRAPPED, HUNTED, AND KILLED.
ISNT AMERICA STILL DEMOCRACY , OR A DICTATORSHIP THAT CUDDLE'S TO THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE MONEY TO BUY THEMSELVE'S FAVOR'S FROM OUR POLITICIAN'S?
FINALLY SIR,  
YEAR'S AGO, NATIVE AMERICAN'S ANIMAL'S FOR SURVIVAL AND FOR SURVIVAL ONLY, THEY DIDNT GO AROUND AND WIPE OUT ANY AND ALL ANIMAL'S THAT WERE PRESENT.
WHY?  BECAUSE THEY RESPECTED NATURE, THEY LIVED IN HARMONY WITH NATURE, BECAUSE THEY NEEDED IT TO BE PLENTIFUL FOR THERYRE FUTURE GENERATION'S TO SURVIVE.
HOWEVER, WE LET'S JUST SAY AMERICAN'S FOR ALL INTENSIVE PURPOSE'S CAME AND TOOK CARE OF THAT QUICKLY,  WE NOT ONLY MADE WAR ON THE NATIVE PEOPLE FOR THEYRE LAND WE TOOK THEM OFF THEYRE LAND, WE THEN MOVED THEM TO LAND THAT WASNT RICH OR FULL OF WILDLIFE SO THEY CAN CONTINUE TO SURVIVE
WE ALSO TOOK AWAY THEYRE WAY OF LIFE BY SENDING THEM TO BOARDING SCHOOL'S , PROHIBITIED THEM TO SPEAK THEYRE LANGUAGE OR PRACTICE THEYRE RELIGIOUS AND CULTURAL BELIEF'S.
WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY IS THIS,  IF WE IMPOSE AND EXPECT THEM TO FOLLOW OUR BELIEF'S AND CULTURE LIKE PAYING HOMAGE TO OUR FLAG, OR WE AMERICAN'S ARE EXPECTED TO RESPECT THE BIBLE, THE KORAN, THE BOOK OF MORMON, AND THE VAST VARIETY OF OTHER RELIGION'S.
THEN WHY IN HEAVEN'S NAME CANT WE SHOW THEM JUST A LITTLE RESPECT AND STOP THE WAR,THE SLAUGHTER OF THEYRE ANIMAL'S THAT THEY HOLD EVER SO SACRED--WHY ? BECAUSE THEY FALL UNDER THE DEPT OF INTERIOR AND THEY ARE ONLY INDIAN'S.
STOP THE BEAR HUNT IN CALIFORNIA, STOP TRAPPING AND KILLING COYOTE'S, WOLVE'S,MTN LION'S, OR THE ROUND UP OF THE LAST WILD HORSES AND BURROS THAT WE HAVE LEFT.
SOON SIR, THE ONLY WILD HORSE'S, BURRO'S, AND OTHR WILDLIFE WE ARE GOING TO SHOW OUR KID'S AND GRANDKID'S WILL BE IN A STORYBOOK OR  ZOO.
DO WE REALLY WANT TO BE KNOWN AS THE GENERATION THAT WIPED OUT THE LAST REMAINING WILDLIFE WE HAD LEFT ?
IN CLOSING , WE USED TO HAVE 20,000 TO 30,000 GRIZZLY BEAR'S HERE IN OUR GREAT STATE OF CALIF, WE USE TO HAVE CALIF GRAY WOLVE'S, WE USED TO HAVE MEXICAN GRAY WOLVE'S, BEAVER'S WERE MORE POPULOUS, ANTELOPE, ELK ARE VANISHING. WHY?
I HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTING TO MAKE CONTACT WITH YOU FOR SOME TIME NOW, INCLUDING GOVERNOR JERRY BROWN AS WELL---ONLY TO BE PUT OFF, IGNORED, DENIED.
WHICH LEAVE'S ME NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE THAN TO CONTACT MY COLLEAGUE'S AND PUSH FOR AN ALLOUT TRAVEL BOYCOTT OF CALIFORNIA, THE EXACT SAME WAY WE HAVE DONE TO NEVADA AS THEYRE TOURIST INDUSTRY HAS HIT ROCK BOTTOM LOW'S.
ITIS AMAZING WHAT UNION'S, WILDLIFE ADVOCATE'S AND NATIVE AMERICAN'S CAN DO WHEN WE PULL TOGETHER
UNTIL THIS DAY OF JUNE 24TH SUNDAY. 2012----OUR VOICE'S HAVE BEEN IGNORED..
I HAVE TV PRODUCER'S,AND A BEVY OF OTHER NEWSMEDIA THAT ARE STARTING TO LISTEN TO US AS WE WERE JUST WRITTEN UP IN A NEW YORK MAGAZINE AND OTHER'S.
THE BATTLE LINE'S HAVE BEEN DRAWN,
THE STAGE HAS BEEN SET FOR A SHOWDOWN AT THE STATE CAPITAL IN SACRAMENTO ON JUNE 26TH, TUESDAY. 2012 9AM--- ROOM#4202
4TH FLOOR.
AS THE BATTLE TO SAVE CALIFORNIA'S BLACK BEAR'S FROM BEING HUNTED BY HUNTER'S WITH HOUND DOG'S AND TRACKING DEVICE'S AND GPS DEVICE'S---AND THEY CALL THIS HUNTING ??
THIS IS NOT ONLY AN OUTRIGHT SLAUGHTER, BUT DISRESPECTFUL TO THE MANY CANADIAN AND NATIVE AMERICAN INDIAN TRIBE'S THAT HOLD THESE BEAR'S SACRED, JUST AS WE HOLD OUR BIBLE AND FLAG SACRED.
THIS  FIGHT MEAN'S ALOT MORETHAN A FIGHT TO SAVE A FEW BEAR'S--THIS IS A FIGHT FOR ALL WILDLIFE, AS THIS SAME FIGHT IS BEING BROUGHT TO OTHER STATE'S AS WELL.
BUT YET, MR .NEWSOM,  YOU CHOOSE TO IGNORE US , IF BY CHOICE OR BY OTHER REASON'S ?
WE WILL BE THERE IN YOUR BACKYARD, AT THE STATE CAPITAL BRIGHT AND EARLY SIR.
I WILL BE BRINGING VIDEO FOOTAGE, PHOTO'S AND OTHER EVIDENCE, HOWEVER THIS IS NOT UNDER THE DIRECTION OF MY ORGANIZATION THAT I REPRESENT--THIS FIGHT IS UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF SENATOR TED LIEU OF REDONDO BEACH , CALIF  SB.1221   AND THE HUMANE SOCIETY.
WE WOULD MUCH RATHER HAVE A MEETING WITH YOU IN PERSON, THAN A CONVERSATION OF THE PHONE.
THIS WAY YOU CAN ACTUALLY MEET THE LEADER'S OF THE VARIOUS NATIVE AMERICAN INDIAN TRIBE'S AND OUR ADVOCATE'S.
I DO APOLOGIZE FOR THE UPPER CASE EMAIL, I HAVE A VISION PROBLEM AND I FIND IT MUCH EASIER TO READ AND WRITE THIS WAY, I MEAN NO DISRESPECT IN ANYWAY.
I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
RESPECTFULLY

RANDAL MASSARO.    RANDALMASSARO@GMAIL.COM
UNITED STATE'S REPRESENTIVE FOR UNION MEMBER'S FOR THE PRESERVATION OF WILDLIFE
PLEASE NOTE:
I WILL DEPARTING FOR WASHINGTON DC IN LATE JULY TO ATTEND A SUMMIT MEETING, THEREFORE , ANY MEETING WOULD BE DIFFICULT AT THAT TIME.

Great Spirit, with humbled hearts we gather...
Dennis Binns 3:16pm Jun 13
Great Spirit, with humbled hearts we gather together to send many thanks. We thank you for our relations that give us lessons to learn along our journey. We thank you for family and friends that support us along our path. We thank you for the many new friends we have met along the way as we journey together for a better world. We thank you for our elders that bring us wisdom and lessons that have been passed on from our ancestors. We thank you for our children that bring back forgotten lessons.

We ask for a great healing, Father. For those that are suffering through many diverse afflictions we ask that your healing hands be placed upon them. Many have not finished their paths and we ask that strength and straight eyes guide them. We ask for protection for all of our animal friends that are in danger from man this day. We ask for special protection be given to the sacred white animals that you have sent us. Open the eyes of those that would wish them harm and bring in love and compassion to replace the fear. We ask for protection and freedom for those of your children that have been wrongfully taken from their families. We ask for an answer to the many prayers that are going up to you this month, as well.

We thank you for the magnificent creation that surrounds us. May we learn to understand that all living things are connected in spirit. We thank you for Mother Earth and the many cures and life sustenance she provides us. We thank you for the Spirit World and for those that have passed on to that great expanse. We thank you for our ancestors whose words and deeds have shown us how to live during these troubling times. We thank you for your mercy, love and forgiveness, Great One. May we always heed your signs, words and wisdom that you freely give.
