Letter: Help Rochester Animal Rescue After the WDFW's Missteps

Posted

I ask all Washingtonians to please call the governor and ask him to help me and Mrs. Supensky at the For Heaven’s Sake Animal Rescue in Rochester. They’re doing a job nobody else can, wants, or can afford to do. I couldn’t read all of the articles about how the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife killed three deer fawns and a young elk and seized other animals because it broke my heart. 

Mr. and Mrs. Supensky are the best things for these animals. They know what they do and need to survive in the wild. You don’t turn wild animals into the wild during winter when there’s little feed. Spring is better. 

You give animals a year before you turn them loose to give them a chance to fend off the wild without a mother. Come on Mr. Gardner, they’re doing a job better than you that you don’t want to do.

Please Washington residents, call the governor and ask for help for the Supenkys. They’re two of the most amazing people I have ever met. Maybe you should watch “We Bought a Zoo.”

They take their heart out of it and wait until the end result where they show their love for the animals when they release them. What they do works. You don’t need research. Just common sense will work. I say a prayer for all of you that work there. Your hearts must be hurting but more will need you to survive. 

And Mr. Gardner, try thinking instead of controlling, and see how that works out.
