End legal loopholes that allow rich Americans to go overseas to hunt Endangered Animals.

Created by C.S. on July 05, 2014

Mr. President, please eliminate the practice that allows rich Americans to purchase "hunts" of Endangered Animals overseas. The Animals are considered endangered by the United Nations, and by the American government. We should not allow certain affluent Americans to buy "hunts" for these rare creatures simply because of corrupt foreign officials who allow the practice, or a difference in another nations law to American law. This has established precedent in America refusing to allow citizens to travel overseas for the exploitation of children simply because it's legal or officials look the other way in certain other nations. Once the Lions, Leopards and Elephants are gone they are gone forever. The World recognizes this, and America recognizes it...please let our policy reflect this, Sir.
