Our new lion hunting bill is the first I've heard of them. As connected as many are on Bowsite, maybe someone knows who they actually are?

If anyone has Facebook. Go to their page. It appears that they are serious about these issues in multiple states.

Reading their info, you could take it either way --- for or against hunting. I agree, I need a lot more info on them first, especially since they originate in California.

"Reading their info, you could take it either way --- for or against hunting." My first thought also.

I don't know for sure. I guess I thought their name was as intentional as the anti orgs like to do. I just saw from their Facebook posts that they sure seem to be against the colorado and other state measures.

Cautiously optimistic here. Maybe, just maybe, this could be the start of the across the board support AND real meaningful action group hunting needs!

It looks to be the hunters in California that successfully stood up against the bear hunting ban (SB 252) this time last year. I know they were planning a platform like this one. They talked about it on some podcast, I believe P&Y, last spring. My .02, this group looks legit and will do great things.

I signed up and am already impressed with their activity. They have sent 5700+ emails to CO legislators. I'm going to send some money.
Do most hunters care about preserving hunting? Not unless it affects something a hunter specifically hunts, in their state. We are a sad bunch.

You can sign up for all the info and updates without donating. They appear to be serious about starting a national organization of ALL hunters to fight back against these state-by-state threats. This is something that currently does not exist.

Looks like the organization that everyone's been waiting for! But like every thing else in this world Money Moves It! Hopefully the hunting hordes get on board.

Don't see any harm in getting info and updates. Too early for me to donate. I can't see anything bad but they are so new that there isn't much out there. Some years ago a new organization popped up that appeared to be a great fit for me that turned out not to be.

I looked over their site fairly close. Seem to be legit and on the side of the hunting community nationwide. More action taking place on the Howl site than BHA for dam sure. I sent the emails to all 4 states. I’d give it a look for yourselves gents.

I will say this - they keep you in the loop if you just sign up. Like, daily reports. That tells something.

HSUS, the big lie already. "Colorado hunters kill thousands of Bobcats per year." According to CPW reports, hunters and trappers take 400-500 cat per year during a set season. Not thousands. One of the same sponsors of this Bill, tried to ban bobcat hunting last year, using a Citizens Petition before the CPW Commission. Based on science and recommendations from Staff, the petition was denied. They did not get their way so here we go with another action trying through the Legislature.

They need a better name.

Perhaps they took a page from the anti's playbook and chose a name that will get some funding from unsuspecting donors from the other side?

I have donated. I also mentioned on the Gram that Howl for Wildlife should stop by Bowsite and introduce themselves to you all. Cheers!!

They are actually helping on these issues. Certainly would be worth getting them over here and even on the Stickbow to introduce themselves.

Looks like the bill to ban cat hunting in Colorado has fortunately lost 3 of its 4 sponsors. Thank God!

If you are not convinced yet that Howl is legit… let me assure you they are as pro-hunting and fishing as it gets…How do I know? I am one of the co founders of the organization. feel free to google my name John Stallone or the president Charles Whitwam if you are not convinced that we are hunters… well you’re a tough not to crack

You guys are doing great! Using the antis' media tactics against them. Sending you $100 in the morning. Keep up the great effort!

Ive never joined any hunting organizations before. It appears this is a pretty good group according to to others that have been involved in the politics side of hunting. Im going to do a little more research and probably join. The politicians are swayed back and forth by pressure, and it seems like this group has it figured out how to apply the right amount of pressure.

Stix, this is what we thought (hoped) BHA would be in the beginning. Are BHA members even aware of this organization? The support of thousands of man-bun/ skinny-jeans/flat-brim folks would really be a boost.
