It's Illegal to Kill Grizzly Bears. This Railroad Company Has Been Doing It Anyway.

Dear friends,   Grizzly bears are an iconic species — and they're federally protected due to being a threatened species in the U.S. But that hasn't stopped greedy railroad companies from allowing trains to kill these vulnerable bears, right on the tracks.   This is not only immoral — it's also illegal. Killing federally protected animals is a direct violation of the Endangered Species Act. BNSF is a major railroad company in the U.S., and its business operates in an important habitat for grizzly bears, deep inside the state of Montana. Its tracks cut through or near approximately 206 miles of grizzly bear habitat in the lower 48 states, including in specific key recovery areas.   Railroad companies, including BNSF, could take a wide variety of actions to reduce the risk of grizzlies and other animals dying on their tracks. So why isn't BNSF taking these steps? Wildlife don't understand what trains or train tracks are. All they know is that these are their lands to roam as they live life and pursue food, mating, and natural migration cycles. It's our responsibility, as humans who drive fast-paced machines through wild areas, to keep endangered wildlife safe. Government agencies must hold BNSF accountable and demand the company implement proper measures to keep wildlife safe! Sign the petition now!

P.S. BNSF broke federal law by killing grizzly bears, in grizzly bear territory, on its train tracks. Sign the petition.      Sign Now
