Ferret Legalization EIR Wraps UpFor the past year Dr Geo Graening and staff at Sacramento State University have been compiling the information needed to file an Environmental Impact Report on the ferret issue for California. Dr Graening is not a legalization advocate but an unbiased scientific researcher we hired to do the research. Why LegalizeIf you have ever met a ferret, you probably already understand that ferrets are domesticated housepets who don't belong under the jurisdiction of a wildlife agency called the Department of Fish and Game. If you are new to the issue of ferret legalization, you may be wondering why ferrets should be legal and why so many people are fighting to make that happen. Join our 3000 clubTake the opportunity today to join this important movement. If you are a resident of CA who has been affected by this ban or a ferret lover who wants to support other Californians, please join our cause. With your help, we hope to be able to complete an Environmental Impact Report and share it with the proper authorities in order to prove once and for all that ferrets should be able to join the ranks of other beloved pets!

September 25th 2010 – at the Concord Holiday InnJoin us as we celebrate the tremendous progress we’ve made this year and as we embark on what we hope will be the ending stretch for ferret legalization efforts in California. Exciting things are happening as our we prepare to file the actual Environmental Impact Report.
Looking for Support Even with EIR that backs up what ferrets owners have said for years – that ferrets are safe and pose no challenges to the environment, public health or agriculture, we will probably have to get another legislative bill next year. The EIR will make it easier, but it won’t be easy. This is what we are doing. Surveying the Candidates Each candidate for state assembly and state senate will receive our media kit and a questionnaire asking if they would support ferret legalization if they are elected (or reelected) Looking for Editorial Support To give some strength to our arguments we are asking Editorial Boards to agree with us – it is time for ferrets to be legalized in California. |
