2025 EXTENDED PETITION - Say NO to State Control of Wildlife Rehabbers

THIS IS OUR 2018 to NOW PETITION - *we never closed the 2018 one because we knew they would never stop trying to control us and they proved us right. 

WE NEED YOU AGAIN! Six years ago you helped us stop South Carolina from adopting the horrible Rehabber laws that exist in all but three states in our nation and now they are threatening us again!  Please! SAVE OUR WILDLIFE and support those who rescue!   Sign Our Petition NOW to STOP the state from harming our rehabbers and the animals they save. 

Please sign and SHARE this petition everywhere!  AND watch for updates ... we are just getting started!

This year a handful of people in our state snuck H4874 into law then "FAST TRACKED" it.  The law was stopped with the help of one senator. 

The state agents and lawyers are planning to try again, and they plan to go around our senator to get it into our law. They are ignoring us and they are angry we stopped them. 

Please help us help the animals.

Sign and share asking others to sign and watch for updates, we have just begun!

We have passed 2000 signatures! This is a marathon, lucky for us we learned about this Draft Law well in advance of it being presented to our legislator so we have a real chance to make a difference. Please keep signing and sharing the petition and expressing your opinion 🦌🐿🐴🦆🐇🦔 those with no voice need us

Thanks so much For the support, the, sharing and signing of our petition. The animals have no voice but ours! We got a local news piece on WSAVs evening news tonight. People do care about the animals!! I also learned the DNR doesn’t plan to budge, they want this lawmaking ability and control and they mean to get it. Everyone please do another push and share this petition. I plan to take this and all the signatures before the natural resources committee when session opens in Jan.

Hello to our petition signers! We are over 700 signatures in just a day! Lets keep this up to reach our goal of 10,000 signatures. The man pushing for this unfair LAW is not giving up. Continue to follow our petition & SHARE it with your friends, that is what gets us supporters. Our County Council man Mike is also continuing to work on it & has contacted Chairman of the State Legislature overseeing the DNR (the agency pushing for the unfair law)

Thank You Again! Laura Sterling of Bluffton

County Councilman of Beaufort Mike Covert sent a message to Jay asking that this be tabled while he learns more. Jay wasn’t having it. Mike is now contacting our reps Tom Davis and Weston Newton to help with this.
