THE FUND FOR ANIMALS
The Fund for Animals is unalterably opposed to the
recreational killing of wildlife. Besides being a piteously
unfair and cruel slaughter of innocent animals, sport
hunting is also ecologically destructive.

THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF THE UNITED STATES
The Humane Society of the United States is strongly
opposed to the hunting of any living creature for fun
trophy or for sport, because of the trauma, suffering and
death to the animals that results. The HSUS also opposes
such killing because of the negative effect upon the
young who may learn to accept and live with needless
suffering and killing.

NATIONAL AUDUBON SOCIETY
The National Audubon Society has never been
opposed to the hunting of game species if that hunting is
done ethically and in accordance with laws and
regulations designed to prevent depletion of the wildlife
resource. We have made this clear repeatedly in official
statements of policy, and it remains Audubon policy.

We support hunting because, under professional
regulation, wildlife populations are a renewable natural
resource that can safely sustain taking.
