Promote Breeding Programs to Save European Bison

Target: Mr. Janusz Wojciechowski, European Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development

Goal: Advocate for the conservation and protection of the European bison population through increased efforts in habitat conservation and breeding programs.

The European bison, also known as the wisent, is the largest mammal in Europe and a symbol of European wildlife. Unfortunately, this magnificent animal is facing significant threats to its survival due to habitat loss, hunting, and diseases. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the European bison is classified as a vulnerable species.

The European bison plays a crucial role in maintaining the ecological balance of the forests where they live, as they help disperse seeds and maintain open spaces, promoting biodiversity. Moreover, the bison is an important cultural icon, as it has been part of European history and mythology for thousands of years.

To ensure the long-term survival of the European bison, it is necessary to protect their habitats and promote the conservation of their populations through breeding programs. Several European countries have made significant progress in these efforts, but more needs to be done to ensure the continued growth and stability of the species.

We have the responsibility to protect and preserve the European bison population, not only for their intrinsic value but also for their ecological and cultural significance.

Thus, it is imperative that we call for increased efforts in habitat conservation and breeding programs to ensure the continued survival of the European bison. We want the European Commission to take decisive and prompt action to strengthen the conservation and protection of the European bison population.

Through the conservation of the European bison, we can help to protect the environment and promote biodiversity, which will ultimately benefit all Europeans. We must act now to build a sustainable and eco-friendly future for generations to come. Demand immediate action.

Dear Mr. Janusz Wojciechowski,

We are writing to urge you to advocate for the conservation and protection of the European bison population through increased efforts in habitat conservation and breeding programs.

The European bison, the largest mammal in Europe, is a symbol of European wildlife, and an essential contributor to maintaining the ecological balance of the forests where they live. However, this magnificent animal is under threat due to habitat loss, hunting, and diseases, and is currently classified as a vulnerable species.

We humbly implore you to spearhead increased efforts in habitat conservation and breeding programs to ensure the continued survival of the European bison. It is incumbent upon us to safeguard this iconic species and construct a more sustainable and eco-friendly future for the benefit of all. Thus, we beseech you to take urgent and proactive measures in support of this initiative.

Sincerely,
