You may have noticed that the one mainstream media newsperson who we can count on to include animal issues amongst her "Issues" is CNN's Jane Velez Mitchell.

On Friday, June 4 she told us:
"Sea lions are being systematically executed by government wildlife officials in Oregon and Washington." She explains that their "crime" is that they are "doing what sea lions are meant to do," they are eating salmon.
She shares the story and video of two sea lions in particular, old friends, videotaped hanging out together on  a dock. We are told they were later trapped and killed.

Velez-Mitchell makes this comment:
"This is Uncle Sam --  tax dollars are going to kill these sea lions. And everywhere I turn around, we are rounding up wild horses, using tax dollars....What is wrong with our government?"

Thank heavens the animals finally have a member of the major media telling it like it is. Please send her a huge thank you. It is so important that her producers know that her stance is appreciated, and that people tune in because of it.  Check out the brief segment on line at: http://tinyurl.com/2c94st4
Click "recommend" so that your web friends learn about it.
And then please do send the show that quick thank you.
The show takes comments at: http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form5.html?106

On that segment, Jane interviews Matt Rossell, the northwest director of In Defense of Animals, who explains that the sea lions take a tiny proportion of the salmon (don't they have a right to eat?) and who tells us about the work of the Sea Lion Defense Brigade. You can learn more about that at http://sealiondefensebrigade.org/

If you click on the "Wish List" on that site you'll find that the brigade is in need of volunteers to patrol the Columbia river, plus donations of camcorders, tapes for camcorders, binoculars, cameras with good optical zoom, tripods, motor boats  canoes, kayaks and gas money -- which you can donate by clicking on the "donate" button there on the site.

I send thanks to Glen Venezio for his efforts to get the sea lions coverage and for making sure we knew about the segment.

Yours and the animals',
Karen Dawn
