This section is dedicated to those—of all species—whose lives were stolen in the ongoing and senseless war on wildlife. It would take far too long and would be nearly impossible to amass a list of all the non-human losses. C.A.S.H. holds dear the precious wild animals who’ve been killed for sport. Though they had no name, they will never be forgotten. In addition to the thousands on record as successfully “harvested,” an incalculable number of animals are wounded, only to crawl off and die, their deaths never reported. Therefore, this victims list, compiled by the Committee to Abolish Sport Hunting, is limited to humans.
