Canada geese are under assault from the USDA and many American cities. In New York state alone, city officials and the USDA have already begun a brutal effort to kill 165,000 geese, reducing their numbers from 250,000 to only 85,000. Last week, 150 activists joined IDA on the steps of New York’s City Hall to protest this slaughter.
Nationally, their plan is to kill over 450,000 geese. IDA is on the frontlines, leading the battle to stop the killing, and we need your help!

It is the policy of In Defense of Animals to no longer use language that accepts the current concept of animals as property, commodities and/or things. Rather than refer to ourselves or others as "owners" of animals we share our lives with, we now refer to ourselves and others as "guardians" of our animal friends and to animals as "he" or "she" rather than "it."
"Animals have been regarded as property for way too long. It's high time we took on a more loving and responsible relationship with our kindred beings in the web of life on this beautiful planet. I always think and act as a guardian towards my kindred beings, never as their owner."
Jim Mason, author, An Unnatural Order
