On behalf of the hunters of Colorado, I'd like to express thanks and gratitude to those of you that did the right thing and signed our petition. The proposal to ban prairie dog hunting was solidly defeated by a unanimous 9-0 vote. The various petitions opposing the ban generated almost 8,000 signatures. Your signature helped us win, this time. But the Animal Rights Activists aren't through yet. They are threatening to push this ban onto the November ballot. This will involve a whole different strategy than just signing a petition. I hope we are up to the new challenge.

Thank you, again, from the sportsmen and women of Colorado.

Folks,
Prairie dog hunting is only one small piece of the over all picture. Anti-hunting groups are working together full time to take away our hunting and fishing rights, be it a little here and there or state by state. This round was won. The outcome next time maybe totally different and rest assured there will be a next time. We as sportsmen and women must fight a continuing battle to defeat these groups. Protecting our sports must be a top priority, not only for us today but also for future generations. By banding together, showing our unified support for all legal forms of hunting, shooting, trapping and fishing we can prevail but we must be ever vigilant.

United we must stand …
