Cloris Leachman's video message to Stephen Colbert

These attacks have become unBEARable. TV comedian Stephen Colbert has been after black bears, grizzly bears and polar bears for years. Now Cloris Leachman is joining Ed Asner and Defenders of Wildlife in fighting back. Send Colbert a bear and let him know that saving these animals is serious business.

Share on Facebook Omss, What do you think it will take to get Stephen Colbert’s attention and change his mind about bears? I’d say 1,000 plush bears and a hard-hitting message from entertainment legend Cloris Leachman might just do the trick. Watch Cloris Leachman’s video message to Stephen Colbert, and then make a donation and we’ll send Stephen a plush bear on your behalf as an important reminder of the importance of bear conservation. (Warning: Cloris’s language is a little rough, so this video may be inappropriate for younger wildlife supporters.) Cloris Leachman (of Dancing with the Stars, the Mary Tyler Moore show and countless other entertainment features) has joined Ed Asner and Defenders of Wildlife in our new ColBEAR campaign. Her mission: to raise awareness about the plight of our polar bears, grizzlies and black bears and get Stephen Colbert to change his mind about these wonderful – and imperiled – animals. With your support, Cloris, Ed and Defenders will send 1,000 plush bears to The Colbert Report – and give Stephen an inescapable reminder of the importance of bear conservation efforts. For the record, we know Stephen’s only joking, but we also know that bear conservation is serious business… and the powerful impact Mr. Colbert could have in protecting these often misunderstood animals. That’s why it’s so important that we get Stephen’s attention and build awareness about the plight of our bears. Help us send Stephen Colbert a powerful pro-bear message. Make a tax-deductible donation of $30 or more and we’ll send the TV funnyman a plush bear on your behalf. For the Bears, Rodger Schlickeisen President Defenders of Wildlife   P.S. The ColBEAR Campaign is a fun way to educate America about our imperiled bears, but saving bears is serious business.
