Hi Tami,

Do you think the logging industry will stop destroying mountain caribou habitat if we simply ask nicely?

For the sake of the endangered mountain caribou, BC's government needs to do more than just ask. Sign this petition urging the BC government to develop a caribou recovery plan that will properly protect caribou from logging and habitat loss: http://go.care2.com/e/R5H5/ejXh/pX78

All of the world's mountain caribou live in the mountains of southeast British Columbia and parts of Washington, Idaho and Montana. They are considered one of the most endangered mammals in North America and their numbers are declining rapidly.

BC government's current mountain caribou recovery plan proposes less habitat protection than the government's mountain caribou science team believe would be necessary to fully recover the herds.

Canadian pressure is critical for the recovery of this endangered species. Please tell the BC government that habitat protection is the cornerstone of an effective mountain caribou recovery plan. The comment period ends February 28, 2007. Send your comment TODAY http://go.care2.com/e/R5H5/ejXh/pX78.

Thanks for helping today, Hilary Stamper Care2 and ThePetitionSite.com
