A Midnight Song
Rick Cantalupo
By the cover of night,you sing your song to the moon.
Knowing shortly that morning will be there soon.
Most people think,it's just a howl and a cry.
To me, it's just beautiful music that you sing to the sky.
Loyality to your pack,is to the end.
And your always willing to help one of your friends,
When night falls,you go out for the kill.
It's just for the food and not for the thrill.
You go out with the pack and hunt like men.
Always returning by morning to your den.
Your with your family every moment of the day.
Constantly protecting your pups from the prey.
So next time you howl,sing very loud.
Your a great family man and should be proud.
We all should be like you,giving our family so much love.
So keep on singing your song,to the stars above.

BAN STEEL TRAPS
- signatures: 4,080
- signature goal: 5,000
- Target: Governor of Nebraska
- Sponsored by: Animal Advocates
A
steel jaw trap set for a bobcat accidentally trapped a female mountain
lion in Nebraska. The injuries were so severe, the lion had to be
euthanized. The mountain lion was eliminated from the state in 1890 and
there is only a small breeding population of mountain lions in Nebraska,
less than 20. To have lost one to this cruel device is a major set-back
for the species.
When an animal steps on the steel-jaw trap spring, the trap's jaws slam shut, clamping down on the animal's limb or paw. As the animal struggles in excruciating pain to get free, the steel vise cuts into his or her flesh-often down to the bone-mutilating the leg or paw. Some animals, especially mothers desperate to return to their young, will even attempt to chew or twist off their trapped limbs. Not only are traps cruel, they are also completely indiscriminate. Every year, dogs, cats, birds, and other animals-including endangered species-are "accidentally" crippled or killed by steel jaw traps.
We ask Nebraska to ban the use of steel jaw traps.
