URGENT! Act NOW To Fight Catalina Slaughter!

The Avalon City Council voted unanimously to adopt an ordinance that prohibits trapping, baiting, luring, or harming deer within Avalon city limits—reflecting overwhelming community opposition to the Catalina Island Conservancy’s deer eradication plan.

However, the Conservancy’s current pursuit of a Restoration Management Permit from the California Department of Fish & Wildlife would effectively nullify that local ordinance and allow for the slaughter of the island’s mule deer population!

YOU can help STOP Catalina Island Conservancy’s new plan to brutally and needlessly eradicate our mule deer on Catalina Island by making your voice heard at TONIGHT’S Avalon City Council meeting!
Even if you cannot make it to the meeting in person, please email our the Avalon City Council leaders at the addresses below:
