Sarah Palin's Shocking Animal Cruelty

By Michael Markarian, Humane Society Legislative Fund. Posted September 16, 2008.



If Sarah Palin ran the United States like she has run Alaska, it would indeed be a terrible day for animals.

GOP conventioneers were officially introduced to their vice presidential candidate who is, as Fred Thompson said, "the only nominee in the history of either party who knows how to properly field dress a moose."


But it's not Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's personal love of hunting or appetite for moose venison that should strike fear in the heart of every animal advocate in the nation--it's her retrograde policies on animal welfare and conservation that have led to an all-out war on the state's wolves and other creatures.



Her record is so extreme that she has perhaps done more harm to animals than any other current governor in the United States -- and that's a difficult distinction to achieve among our 22 Republican and 28 Democratic chief executives. Voters of both political parties who care about the humane treatment of animals must unite to make sure that the nation's worst governor doesn't end up just a heartbeat away from the nation's most important job.

Horrible! click the link for a complete read of this story.

1. Her excuse: no one else understands how we do things in Alaska.
I would expect nothing less from a coward.

Thank you for posting.

2. She offers $150.00 for each wolf killed
But she does not want to see the dead body, only the left paw.
