Petition with Signatures from Over 55,000 Concerned Citizens, Who Call Upon You to Change Your Event to a Wildlife Festival Where No Snakes Are Killed Via E-mail and U.S. Mail March 21, 2013 Mayor John E. Bartholomew City of Opp P.O. Box 610 Opp, AL 36467 [email protected] Re: Hosting a Wildlife-friendly Festival Instead of the Rattlesnake Rodeo Dear Sir: I am writing on behalf of the Center for Biological Diversity to urge the City of Opp, the sponsor of the annual rattlesnake rodeo in Opp, Alabama, to stop incentivizing the capture and killing of rare rattlesnakes at your annual event. I have enclosed a petition with signatures from over 55,000 concerned citizens, who call upon you to change your event to a wildlife festival where no snakes are killed. Last year, the Evans County Wildlife Club in Clayton, Georgia replaced its rattlesnake roundup with a wildlife festival that does not involve the killing of snakes. Rattlesnakes are still a focus of the festival, but their display is now for educational, safety, and conservation purposes only. The wildlife festival has been a huge success and generated revenue for the local community without harming snakes. We encourage you to follow the example set by the Evans County Wildlife Club. Please know that rattlesnake roundups are depleting populations of eastern diamondback rattlesnakes: Analysis of data from four roundups in the southeastern United States shows a steady decline in the weights of prize-winning eastern diamondbacks and the number collected. This once-common species is being pushed toward extinction not only by hunting pressure but also by habitat loss and road mortality. Scientific studies over the past decade have documented range-wide population declines and significant range contractions, which is why we filed a 2011 petition to protect the eastern diamondback rattlesnake under the Endangered Species Act. In response, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service determined that this snake may deserve a place on the nation’s list of endangered and threatened species and has launched a full status review of the eastern diamondback rattlesnake. We hope that this year’s rattlesnake rodeo in Opp will be the last ever that kills snakes. Sincerely, Collette L. Adkins Giese Amphibian and Reptile Staff Attorney Center for Biological Diversity Change Rattlesnake Roundups to Humane Festivals March 21, 2013 We, the undersigned, are writing to urge you to change the rattlesnake roundup held in your community to a humane festival where snakes are not hunted or killed. Towns such as San Antonio, Florida and Fitzgerald, Georgia have already changed their roundups to successful wildlife festivals that generate income for their communities. We urge you to follow their example and change your roundup to an event where snakes are not collected or slaughtered.

  • 1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER the Following Players Comprise the 1967 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1967 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.

  • Xerox University Microfilms 300 North Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, Michigan 48106 75-3121
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
