Oppose the Airline Ban on Transport of Legally Harvested Animals

So stupid

I oppose a ban of airline refusal of shipment of firearms, hunting gear, archery equipment, and game meat and trophies

I'll ship my trophies by boat and pay someone that wants my business if these airlines don't want my $$$... Maybe PETA will pay them for not doing it... Yeah right!!! LOL Idiots..

Reverse the ban.

As a senior travel agent for a major travel company franchise, I have great delight in advising my clients on the ethical way to fly internationally using the 42 - that's forty-two - airlines that have banned the carrying of trophies that ego-driven trophy hunters feel it is their *right* to snuff out the life of a sentient being so they can hang a trophy on their walls. The world is evolving and trophy hunters are being left far far behind. Thankfully, airlines know which side their bread is buttered on. Go ahead and boycott those 42 - that's forty-two - airlines. I guarantee they will be counting their money long after that taxidermied animal has been hung on the wall.

Well said Joy Johnson. Tanks but no tanks.

the tourist industry on fishing and hunting is going to be greatly impacted for the negative

Without hunting & hunting operators protecting the areas they hunt there would be NO animals - Period !!

I am opposed to the discontinuation of transport of legally hunted animal trophies by airlines. Emotionalism should not dictate policy, the laws of the countries should.

irs just such a joke all because of one lion that someone thought they were shooting legally.

Have to scratch an entire hunt because if this bs

You're only punishing law-abiding hunters that do more for animal conservation and welfare than pretty much anyone else.

If it's legal to hunt them, and them was legally taken, then it's legal and right to transport them!

Seek the truth... Seek the truth.

why should there be a ban on a legally hunted animal and why is this a issue while other things are allowed?

Legal and ethical hunters should not be punished for the actions of poachers

I very much oppose this

The sport hunters are puzzled. Why don't people like us? We need some "PR: to turn around our image. Animal welfare advocates will continue to show the videos of rhinos, lions, elephants and other species executed while trying to eat. Wealthy fake hunters who are rarely told NO. The EU will ban the importation of trophies into Europe. The USFWS will have to implement a ban no later than 2016. No amount of PR will restore your SLEAZY image. We are eagerly awaiting the grinning idiot photo of Walt Palmer with the dead lion Cecil......We have no sympathy for you!

this is not an appropriate response for people who have spent their hard earned money to legally hunt an animal of their choice. Just because you don't approve of it doesn't make it wrong for everyone.

Do not pass this proposal!
