It is feared that the Polish authorities may allow the planned killing of a herd of rare European bison in Poland. These 25 bison have been infected with tuberculosis which the authorities fear will spread among other bison herds.
However, quarantine and treatment of a tuberculosis-infected herd in Canada has proved that killing these animals is not necessary and the authorities need to exhaust treatment options before resorting to the kill plan.
Care2 is hosting an online petition asking the Polish Government not to kill the bison before attempting saving them via treatment and separating them from other herds. Please sign the petition online to support this cause.
Thank you!
