It is unbelievable to me that this is an actual proposal. I am not against responsible subsistence hunting, as it provides food and cultural connections for many people. However, sport hunting with dogs, particularly when the targets are foxes and coyotes, is abhorrent. I am firmly against having facilities that allow animals to be contained and used as essentially training dummies for sport hunting. Even more so knowing that an aspect of this includes judging and competition. Terrorizing wildlife for the sake of competition is inhumane and I feel that these types of facilities should be phased out for competition/sport hunting use.
