Federal agents indiscriminately kill more than three million animals – from endangered species to house pets– every year.
从濒危动物到家庭宠物，联邦的代理者（野生动物服务局）每年肆意滥杀三百万动物。
The Wildlife Services agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture is currently being audited by the USDA Office of the Inspector General. But the killing continues.
美国农业部野生动物服务局正在被美国农业部监察长办公室进行审核，但是杀戮还在继续。
Just last week, Wildlife Services sharpshooters killed 23 wolves from a helicopter in a remote area in Idaho.
就在上周，在爱荷华州的偏远地区，野生动物服务局的杀手在直升机上杀害13只狼。
Enough is enough.Tell Secretary of Agriculture, Tom Vilsack to declare a moratorium on all Wildlife Services “lethal actions” against wolves and other top predators at least until the investigation into the agency’s practices has concluded.
够了！让我们要求农业部长汤姆·威力萨克停止所有野生动物服务局对狼和其它顶级掠食动物的“致命行为”，直到针对该机构做法的调查得出结论。
Here are five blood-chilling facts about this rogue agency that have come to light in recent years:
关于这个流氓机构的五个令人毛骨悚然的事实近年来已经曝光出来：

According to their own records, Wildlife Services killed 3,352,378 animals in 2012 alone. Among the victims: wolves, coyotes, beavers, bobcats, great blue herons, and sandhill cranes.
根据他们自己的记录，仅在2012年野生动物服务局就杀害了3352378 只动物，其中包括了狼、郊狼、海狸、山猫、大蓝鹭和沙丘鹤。
The agency’s lethal methods are varied and indiscriminate. They include aerial gunning, cyanide gas, leg hold traps, poison, and neck snares.
该机构的猎杀是不择手段的，包括在空中射击、氰化物气体、捕兽夹陷阱、毒药和颈套陷阱。
Unintended killings are common, and include thousands of endangered and other imperiled species, domestic dogs and other house pets.
捕杀造成的意外是很常见的，意外猎杀的动物包括数以千计的快要灭绝的物种以及其它濒危动物，家犬和其它宠物。
Cover-ups are routine. Former agency hunters have admitted to doctoring records and burying golden eagles caught in neck snares under orders from higher-ups. In Idaho, they even refused to admit to aerial gunning operations until after 23 wolves had been killed!
包庇行为更是家常便饭，前者的猎人已经承认篡改记录并且在上级部门的命令下掩埋了被颈套陷阱杀害的金雕的尸体。在爱荷华州，他们甚至拒绝承认有空中猎杀的行为，直到23只狼被杀害！

This wanton slaughter is funded mostly with federal and state taxpayer dollars. At a time when federal conservation programs are being cut to the bone, these wildlife exterminators provide subsidized services to ranchers and others who request their help and will hire out their killing skills to the states.
这种滥杀行为的主要资金来源是联邦和州的纳税。当联邦的保护计划被削减到极点的时候，这些专职的野生动物杀手将会为愿意出价的农场主和其他请求他们帮助的人提供猎杀服务。
The bottom line, according to Rep. Peter DeFazio, is that Wildlife Services is "the least accountable federal agency" he has ever seen.
按照议员彼得·吉奥的说法，野生动物服务局的本质是他曾经见过的“最不负责任的联邦机构”。
The killing has to stop.Tell Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to impose a moratorium on Wildlife Services’ killing of wolves and other top predators pending the outcome of the ongoing Inspector General’s audit.
这些杀戮必须停止了，告诉农业部长汤姆·威力萨克停止野生动物服务局猎杀狼和其它顶级掠食动物的行动，等待审计结果出台。

Thank you for your urgent help.
Sincerely,

无法理解这些“政府工作人员”存在的意义，他们就是一边拿政府工资一边享受滥杀。
或许就如某些人所说的那样，UFWS就是猎人们组成的组织，让一个猎人组织反对猎人？Hmm
