A 14-year-old boy nearly lost his life in March after accidentally setting off an M-44 set by Wildlife Services in Pocatello, Idaho. Earlier this year, fourteen-year-old Canyon Mansfield was walking his family yellow Labrador named
You may also want to check out Avaaz.org or Change.org to see if they have similar petitions. I know they often have very important environment petitions (especially Avaaz).
Some of my works were declined because I accidentally submitted them to the wrong folder. When I tried to re-submit to the right folders, I was only allowed to submit to 'Featured'. Is that because I haven't joined the group?
Probably. I don't know why it's set for non-members to be able to submit to featured. But you're welcome to join and submit your art! The more the merrier!
