Fish Feel newsletter
PLEASE HELP US HELP THE MOST Fish, the largest category of exploited animals, are sentient beings who suffer the worst abuses. Your donation helps enable our advocacy on their behalf. Fish Feel is an all-volunteer, 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. DONATE NOW March 29, 2025 Reminder: TODAY is World Day for the End of Fishing and Fish Farming! There are so many ways to participate, please do! Here are resources to help you do so. (We will again be handing out information at the National Aquarium, in Baltimore.) This past weekend, we handed out coloring books and fact sheets at a World Water Day event that included ¡°Youth Trout Fishing Day,¡± whereby children could fish a week before the official start of fishing season in Maryland. Youth ¡°fishing rodeos¡± are held across the country by government agencies and other entities. These events encourage children to torture/kill animals for ¡®fun,¡¯ and enable them to do so. Please help oppose them by complaining to local officials about them, and by letting others know how cruel they are. If you¡¯d like information to hand out at such events, contact us at: Info@.... Free Conference: On World Aquatic Animal Day (4/3), George Washington University¡¯s Animal Legal Education Initiative will host ¡°Harms and Freedoms: Captivity, Natural Habitats, and Sanctuary.¡± The first day will focus on ¡°legal and advocacy efforts for aquatic animals globally." The conference is open to everyone, and available in-person and on-line. Advance registration is required, with recordings of the day available online afterwards. Fish Feel¡¯s Mary Finelli is an invited speaker at Five Decades - One Mission: a celebration of the animal rights movement. The event will be at the National Press Club, in Washington, D.C., on August 2nd. Presentations during the day will be followed with a vegan banquet and evening entertainment. Ticket discounts for the presentations and/or the gala are available through 4/6. (Tickets are also available for online access to the presentations.) Planet Virginia will be our first outreach tabling event of the season, at George Mason University, in Fairfax, Va., on April 27th. We will also have a booth at Planet Maryland, in Bethesda, Md., on May 25th. We are lining up summer events, too. Mary was a guest on the All-Creatures.org podcast, with the wonderful host, Mariquita Solis, on February 6th. Aquariums: The Dark Hobby, an award-winning expos¨¦ about the cruelty and environmental harm caused by the removal of marine animals from coral reefs for aquariums, can now be streamed from various sources. People magazine tells of actor Martin Sheen¡¯s involvement with the documentary. Fish Feel is glad to be among its Partners. See also related petition. The ¡°Saving NEMO Act¡± has just been introduced in Congress to prohibit import into the U.S. of protected reef species taken through unsustainable or destructive practices. GOOD NEWS! Earlier this month, a U.S. District Court struck down permits for fish farming in federal ocean waters due to environmental law violations. In 2018 and 2020, federal courts struck down efforts to establish fish farming in the Gulf of Mexico. The recent ruling, however, does not apply to six projects that had already been authorized. Happy Spring! It¡¯s Lent now, too, when observers often opt for fish (though observers are supposed to abstain from meat, and fish flesh used as food is meat). If you know any who do, it¡¯s an opportune time to let them ¨Cor anyone else- know about vegan seafood. Fishy Greetings: photo credit: Ness Delpero (click on image for video) Thank you, very much, for your interest in fish issues, and especially for your concern and compassion for fishes. http://www.FishFeel.org https://www.Facebook.com/FishFeel.org https://twitter.com/Fish_Feel https://www.instagram.com/fish.feel ~Sea Animals - Don't Eat Them~ FBC ELSEWHERE SHARE THIS EMAIL JOIN on FACEBOOK Copyright ? 2025 Fish Feel, All rights reserved.

View this email in your browser TOMALES BAY GRAZING WAIVER: WHAT IS IT & WHY DOES IT MATTER? THE PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD FOR THE TOMALES BAY GRAZING WAIVER IS NOW OPEN! The Grazing Waiver is a regulatory program designed to balance water quality protection and sustainable ranching in the North San Francisco Bay region. Implemented by the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board (¡°Water Board¡±), this grazing waiver streamlines permitting for agricultural operations and establishes annual monitoring, reporting, and assessment standards. By requiring best management practices (BMPs) to minimize erosion, reduce runoff, and protect local waterways, the waiver helps safeguard the health of Tomales Bay, Sonoma Creek, the Napa River. The proposed Grazing Waiver update would also expand the existing program to the Petaluma River watershed and Point Reyes National Seashore. This program plays a vital role in preserving the region¡¯s food production while ensuring that healthy watersheds and thriving working lands can coexist for generations to come. SUBMIT COMMENTS COMMENT ON THE GRAZING WAIVER The public Comment Period for the Tomales Bay Grazing Waiver is now open! The Water Board is accepting comments on their proposed expansion of the program to Point Reyes National Seashore. We invite all community members to participate who value clean water, thriving ecosystems, and sustainable land management.

How NOT to reintroduce wolves
2
Apparently the federal government has been alienating locals in its attempts to reintroduce red wolves in North Carolina and other places. This piece notes the importance of not being heavy-handed, and involving locals in conservation efforts, to make sure that these efforts are done with people rather than to them, and with respect for property rights: https://reason.com/2025/03/15/when-the-government-puts-wolves-in-your-backyard/ When the government puts wolves in your backyard reason.com Love & Liberty, ((( starchild )))
