Kindervision Foundation is currently promoting an ad campaign that portrays the Wolf as "The Big Bad Wolf."
This is not only appalling and disgraceful but a complete and inaccurate portrayal about the reality of wolves.
As educators it is their responsibility to provide realistic, accurate and appropriate information to people, especially children. This is a crucial element in providing education to our children.
Your organization the Kindervision Foundation is currently promoting an ad campaign that portrays the Wolf as "The Big Bad Wolf."
This ad campaign for Kindervision is not only appalling and disgraceful but a complete and inaccurate portrayal of the reality of wolves. Projecting that wolves are the "big bad wolf" and eat little children is not an appropriate way to attempt to "protect" children. Educate our children by providing realistic information, use accurate portrayals about the real predators, which is mankind, not a fairy tale "Big Bad Wolf."
As educators it is your responsibility to provide realistic, accurate and appropriate information to people, especially children. This is a crucial element in providing education to our children.
Wolf advocates, organizations and individuals have spent many years dispelling these myths, which have been misguiding children and adults alike for hundred of years. Little Red Riding Hood was a fairy tale, do not portray it as reality!
Campaigns such as this, continue to re-inforce the already negative and maligned attitudes towards wolves. It is this same attitude that almost caused the species to be extinct.
To promote in your campaign "The big bad wolf is alive and well and roaming in the woods today looking for unsuspecting young women to devour and destroy" is a absurd comparison to the sociopathic and sexual deviants walking the streets in today's society. This couldn't be farther from the "factual" wolf which is terrified of humans.
We the undersigned are hereby requesting your Foundation immediately reconsider this campaign.
