DEAR FRIENDS,
On September 9, 2016, US Senator Jim Inhofe held his annual live pigeon shoot political fundraiser, where hundreds of innocent birds were hand thrown into the air and shot at by Inhofe and his political donors. SHARK was there to protest and video document the slaughter. Two days later, SHARK returned to the property and was horrified to discover that dozens of wounded pigeons had been left on the ground to die a slow, cruel death. We rescued 29 birds who were taken to a wildlife rehabilitation facility.

One of Inhofe's victims after we rescued her. If we were not there, she would have died a slow and painful death
During that time, we repeatedly reached out to the Kiowa County Sheriff to take action, but they refused to do anything. On September 16th, we received a message from a supporter that the Under Sheriff, Joe Janz, had said that they would investigate cruelty charges. Since that time we have attempted to reach Mr. Janz, and exchanged voicemails, but we have not been successful, including being told that he was out when we knew he was working.
Please call and email the Kiowa County Sheriff and ask that they file cruelty charges against Senator Inhofe. Let them know we have the evidence and witnesses and that we have repeatedly tried to get them to take action. Please be polite and respectful.

Senator Inhofe claims to be a devout Christian, yet he engages in acts of animal cruelty. In this video, we show that cruelty using footage from the past three years of his pigeon shoot fundraiser and ask people of faith to tell us what they think of Inhofe killing for fun.
These dedicated activists were with us on the ground at the recent Inhofe shoot. We thank them and call out those who stayed away
SHARK gives credit to those who travelled far to help us with Senator Inhofe’s pigeon shoot, and calls out other groups who ignored this important campaign. Inhofe is a powerful politician, which is why fighting and exposing him is so important. Some may be frightened of Inhofe and stay away, but we will never back down.
