Bird in Trouble - Help!!!!!
Websailor Started conversation Apr 11, 2004
Sorry, guys, this is one of the feathered kind! PLEASE can I ask ALL the h2g2 community to sign the Save the Albatross Petition at:
http://www.forest-bird.org.nz/petition/index.asp
These birds and many others are dying unnecessarily from long line fishing by illegal operators. Our seas support us, and they are being plundered at an alarming rate for no good reason except money.
You can find out about the Petition, and John Ridgway's epic journey round the world in his yacht, promoting this petition to save the albatross.
It will only take a few seconds to sign, and would make a BIG difference when John hands the Petition in, in Rome on June 26th. If you do nothing else useful today, PLEASE do this.
