THE DECISION MAKERS

The decision makers with the authority to stop the slaughter of the Catalina Island Mule Deer include Alison Wrigley Rusack, Lifetime Benefactor of the Catalina Island Conservancy AND the Catalina Island Company Chairman, which manages the island's natural resources; California Governor Gavin Newsom, and Chuck Bonham at the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, which oversees wildlife management and conservation in the state of California.

These entities have the power to enact policies, regulations, and management practices that can help protect the mule deer population on Catalina Island and prevent the Catalina Island Conservancy’s 100% eradication efforts.

It's crucial for concerned individuals and organizations to engage in constructive dialogue and advocacy with these decision makers to emphasize the importance of adopting sustainable and ethical strategies to manage the deer population on Catalina Island.
