prevent National Parks from euthanizing animals who were acting within their nature and where man did not follow rules.

Created by J.V. on August 09, 2015

National parks have guidelines to ensure the safety of park visitors or employees. These guidelines are posted and communicated to visitors in a variety of ways. However, these guidelines are not always followed. As a result, humans may become the target of deadly attacks. The parks will euthanize those animals in the name of visitor or employee safety. In such cases where humans have not followed the safety precautions communicated by the park, the animal should not be euthanized. Other tactics should be utilized, including the temporary closure of trails, the relocation of animal, and improved enforcement and education of park visitors.
