Unfair Game

You are invited to a Sierra Club-sponsored screening of “Unfair Game,” a film produced by Project Coyote that exposes the shameful practice of organized wildlife-killing contests.

In these competitions, contestants try to out-gun each other to win cash and prizes by amassing the most carnage. In New Mexico, these competitions occur almost every weekend during the winter months. Learn about the importance of “unprotected species” like coyotes in nature in a panel discussion afterward and how we can stop these disgusting killing sprees.

All events are free. Screening and panel discussion locations:
