Good Morning,
I received this and want to forward it to all of you.
Ebay must be stopped.
Right now there is an auction for a black wolf hide .......
Ebay wolf hide for auction
Please we must do whatever we can to stop Ebay or any other auction
site/seller from doing this...
Thank you.

Greetings,
I've set up a protest page regarding the sale of wolf items on eBay.
I've also been trying to set up a petition, but there has been some
technical difficulties.
I'll updating this page as time goes by.
Please let me know if you have any insight or ideas that may improve the
page. Also please spread the word to everyone you know and tell them to
get off their butts and do something! Write a letter to eBay and tell
them how you feel.
Tell them it's important for them to take responsibility for what is
sold through their site. Tell them that wolves are an endangered species
in this country and that they can't guarantee these wolves weren't
poached. Tell them something.
Tell them how it makes you sad to see a dead wolf on their website.

eBay Wolf
by Ebon Lupus
I was looking through eBay for wolfy kind of things The page opens up
and there I see a murdered wolf Or at least what's left of him
His soft, warm fur is no longer his
It's up for grabs to whoever can afford it...
But the wolf whose fur it is cannot afford it Because he's dead
Perhaps gone to a better place
For the world is hell
And human beings are the devils in it...
Devils who would steal a creature's home Who would kill his family
Who would deprive him of his life and his beautiful fur Devils who wear
another's fur
Or display it - like some barbaric prize
How personal this should be
To wear another's fur
To use another's fur as an ornament of vanity How vulgar!
Being human.
To be a killer - a predator far worse than any other Killing for
pleasure
Killing for vanity
Killing for greed
Breeding like contagion!
The world is hell
And human beings are the devils in it...
I look away from eBay
I wonder how humanity can call itself civilized I think about the world
we have made
I take no pleasure in it.
A tear rolls down my cheek
Pleasure died with that beautiful wolf
Once free and full of life
I would give all I have
I would give my life
If this wolf could run free once more
Enjoy being
Enjoy the life stolen with his fur
As his blood ran warm onto the cold snow The hot, heavy lead of a bullet
in his heart
How would you like to be murdered for your skin? Deprived of your
life...
We all want to live, don't we?
Deprived of your life...
To serve the vanity of some gross hairless monkey!
He dreams no more
He plays with his pack-mates no more
He laps at his mate's soft warm muzzle no more All the pleasures of his
life deleted
By the hot, heavy lead of a bullet in his heart
Human beings are so naïve...
They steal from Gaia
They murder beauty
They dump their shit into the air
Into the water
All over the earth
And multiply like contagion
I prey that you have gone to a better place, eBay wolf I surely do!
I wish with all my heart I could join you there
For the world we make here is hell
And human beings are the devils in it
