Sarah Palin is on the war path – and this time, it's not against those damn terrorists who harbor all those weapons of mass destruction – it's those pesky wolves. Palin is calling upon all trigger-happy rednecks to shoot at wolves and has put a $150 bounty on their fuzzy heads.

Now actress Ashley Judd is coming to the defense of the wolves, narrating a video on behalf of Defenders of Wildlife, lambasting the former Vice Presidential nominee for the wolf slaughter. Palin has responded calling the organization's video, "reprehensible and hypocritical" for trying "to deceive Americans into parting with their hard-earned money."

Palin goes on to say, "The ad campaign by this extreme fringe group, as Alaskans have witnessed over the last several years, distorts the facts about Alaska’s wildlife management programs. Alaskans depend on wildlife for food and cultural practices which can’t be sustained when predators are allowed to decimate moose and caribou populations."

Wolves have long been on the federal government's list of endangered species, except for in Alaska where they thrive.
