Anchorage, Alaska (AP) -- An animal rights group in Connecticut is leading 
the charge against a state-sponsored program in Alaska that has so far killed 14 
wolves.
Priscilla Feral, who is president of the 200 thousand-member Friends of 
Animals, is organizing protests in cities nationwide to try to stop the lethal wolf 
control program.
The wolves were killed late last week about 100 miles northeast of Anchorage 
where state wildlife officials say the moose population has plummeted because 
wolves and bears are killing too many moose calves, leaving locals with too 
few moose to eat.








"The world is a dangerous place,
not because of those who do evil,
but because of those who look on and do nothing.",
Albert Einstein
