Help End the Bear Hunt in New Jersey
It is important to keep bears in the hearts and minds of the public. We are currently placing bear billboards in critical places in our state. Message: Mothers are killed despite regulations. Let's end this trophy hunt.

Please help us with this vital campaign by donating toward placing more billboards. Many thanks to Cathy McCartney for designing the billboard.

Saddle River Legal Challenge to Bow Hunt
Against the will of the people and with a complete lack of credible research or baseline data, Saddle River’s Mayor Al Kurpis and the Council voted on July 26, 2018 to commence a massacre of the deer population by contracting with a recreational bow hunting organization. By its construct, the Saddle River hunting program is aligned with recreational hunting rather than a bona fide wildlife conflict management program.

Bow hunting is cruel and inhumane. The struck animal will often travel long distances as he, or she slowly and painfully succumbs to death. Even worse, bow hunting, results in deer wound rates that are close to 50 percent. (1)

Not surprisingly, after the hunting in Saddle River started, several deer struck by arrows wandered into adjacent properties. As of November 9, In reports obtained through the Open Public Records Act, three of these wounded deer were never retrieved.

Bow hunting in a suburban town such as Saddle River puts all its residents including its children and pets in harm’s way—where a single misfired or ricocheting razor-tipped arrow can wreak instant tragedy.

Kurpis recognizes other towns are watching Saddle River, as he states on a number of occasions these promotes hunting the hunt to other surrounding towns arrogantly states that all towns are looking to Saddle River as the gateway to similar massacres across Bergen County.

If you are concerned about your family’s personal safety, privacy rights, financial liability, diminished property values, and damage to the overall integrity of your borough, please contribute to fund a STRONG legal challenge that can help shut down this unsubstantiated, incredibly dangerous, and ill-fated approach to wildlife management in Saddle River. We must set a precedent for the rest of Bergen County so other towns do not engage in any similar imprudence.

Billboards for Bears- 2018
URGENT: The New Jersey black bear trophy hunt is STILL ON... despite what you may have heard. Governor Murphy did NOT stop the hunt as he promised! He's only prevented our bears from being killed on state lands. Our bears will STILL be killed on private, federal, and municipal land – including the 35,000 acres in the Newark Watershed. And the state will STILL try to sell 11,000 bear hunting permits to hunters who want to kill our bears...for fun.

So we have now have NEW billboards running...to urge the Governor to KEEP his promise of stopping the bear hunt.

Please donate today...and help us place as many of these billboards as we can. And please continue to follow us on facebook, so you'll know what we need YOU to do next, to help save our bears from trophy hunting. Thank you for all you do!

SAVED: Help Pay For Tank's Expenses
Today, Tank, a death row dog in Vernon, New Jersey was adopted by a wonderful dog advocate in Orange County, New York.

Tank is a 2-1⁄2-year-old American Bully faced a court-imposed death sentence after biting a man in September. The dog was held at the Vernon pound since last fall.

Tank's life was saved by a whole team of people working together, all contributing their skills in legal, financial, organizational, individual, and more. Special thanks go to Nick DuBois, Esq. and Gina Calogero, Esq for their legal skills in getting Tank's life spared until a suitable home could be located.

APLNJ paid Vernon's boarding fees so Tank's adoption would proceed. Thanks to Janine for being a tireless advocate for Tank, who raised money to pay for the enclosure originally required. Thanks to Alice, Angi, Dani, Dave, Jill, Sherry, and Susan for going to court and being involved. Thanks to Cheryl for bringing the muzzle and crate needed to transport Tank. Please let me know if I've missed anyone.

PLEASE donate so we help the new adopter with getting additional expert training for Tank, in addition to helping him pay for other costs to help him adjust in his new home. We'd also would like to reimburse Tim for the boarding fees he paid to Vernon.

Let's share these costs together, so Tank's needs are met.

Many thanks to everyone who inquired about Tank and are donating to this great cause. All funds raised will go directly to this effort.
