Sierra Club’s Policy On Sport Hunting & Fishing

Wildlife and Native Plant Management, Sport Hunting And Fishing – Wildlife and native plant management should emphasize maintenance and restoration of healthy, viable native plant and animal populations, their habitats, and ecological processes. Acceptable management approaches include both regulated periodic hunting and fishing when based on sufficient scientifically valid biological data and when consistent with all other management purposes and when necessary total protection of particular species or populations.

Because national parks are set aside for the preservation of natural landscapes and wildlife, the Sierra Club is opposed to sport hunting in national parks.
— Adopted by the Sierra Club Board of Directors, December 10-11, 1994.

Yup. Absolutely evil.

(lawl!!)

I don’t see how the official statement would put anyone concerned with animals at ease….the Sierra Club supports hunting! (and in case you’ve forgotten, that tidy term generally describes the bloody traumatic death of innocent animals by jerks with high powered riffles, most often for “sport” although oftentimes couched in euphemisms like “population control”)

I for one certainly don’t want my money going to animal killers and will steer clear of Sierra Club, WWF, the Nature Conservancy and and other “conservation” orgs that support hunting.
