Indiana Bobcat Vigil

Indiana Governor's Residence

Join us on November 8 alongside fellow advocates and other animal protection and conservation groups for a powerful candlelight vigil to honor Indiana’s bobcats and stand against their needless killing. With up to 400 bobcats at risk this season, we’ll call on the Indiana Natural Resources Commission to reject the proposal to make the increased quota permanent in 2027.
