THE RECORD
RIDGEWOOD — Animal-rights activists have launched an online salvo against Councilman Mike Sedon, following remarks he made in an email this week concerning the recent state-sanctioned black bear hunt.
Sedon was among the hundreds of municipal officials to receive an email Wednesday from Vernon resident and anti-bear hunt activist Susan Kehoe.
An avid hunter, Sedon was elected last spring to a four-year term on Ridgewood’s council.
Kehoe’s email called on all local officials to publicly object to the documented killing of bear cubs in this season’s hunt, held Dec. 8-13. The same message also was delivered to the inboxes of Mayor Paul Aronsohn and the rest of Ridgewood’s governing body.
The email contained a graphic picture showing two lifeless and bloodied bear cubs strewn across a truck’s flatbed.
