Hello,
I found your blog on Google while searching for animal advocacy groups. I am reaching out to you to see if you can help promote a petition we need complete by Monday. I am listing our Facebook page below. Basically, the city of North Little Rock, AR has approved an open shooting weekend on Canadian Geese. They call it a hunt but these are tame and this is not a hunt. We are about 150 signatures shy of our 1500 to approach city council before this happens. The city refuses to use humane methods such dogs and reduction programs so their solution is to turn 100+ people loose in a public park with shotguns to ‘control the population’.
I appreciate your consideration in advance.

Please check out my new music video, “Lucas”, for animal rights.
It would be great to make a song about animal rights and becoming vegan a HUGE hit.
Thanks,
