LOBBYING EXPENSE
August 22, 2011:
USFWS proposed rule to remove crossed or generic tiger from
exemption under CBW
TEXT PDF and Comments to
OPPOSE HERE
Deadline 9/21/2011
WWF USA has been lobbying since 2009 to
advocate for revisions to USFWS (US Fish and Wildlife Service)
domestic captive tiger reporting requirements, and to remove the
"generic" tiger breeding exemption
approved by FWS in 1998. If this shortsighted WWF idea is approved,
it would be a very
bad news for
tigers, and might cause their
total extinction, in the wild as
well in captivity. Recently in the
2nd quarter of 2010, WWF is
also lobbying for the "Animal Welfare Act
amendment-advocating to include more robust reporting
requirements for owners of captive tigers." What this means
is that in addition to Lacey act which is under USDI/USFWS ,
USDA Animal Welfare Act would have to be amended as well.
