Canned hunting is one of the cruelest, most despicable forms of hunting. We Canadian citizens must put an end to the cruel canned hunting industry.I strongly oppose the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses, and the transfer of existing licenses, for dog train and trial areas in Ontario.
Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals used to train dogs to hunt.
Wildlife should never be taken from their natural environments and held captive by hunters.
It is inhumane to use rabbits, coyotes, and foxes as bait to train dogs.
New licenses for dog train and trial facilities are a huge step backward for society. These facilities have no place in Ontario.
Instead of allowing new applications, the province’s existing 24 facilities need to be closed immediately.
