These facilities should be illegal. This is animal cruelty and is disgusting that is would be called a sport. I can't torture and kill a rabbit or coyote on my property without animal cruelty charges so why are these facilities allowed to exist and possibly expand.

Society should do everything possible to protect wild animals. Our world is an ecosystem and should never be subjected to this kind of torture, for the amusement of humans. If you want your dog to chase coyotes or rabbits away from your crops, they can be trained without resorting to torture of animals.

Naturalist experts and environmental diversity experts should be consulted and they would explain why this practice is as outdated as dog fighting or bull running and should be banned.

Society needs to evolve to be more compassionate and accepting of the rich diversity of our ecosystems and relegate the torture of animals for human pleasure in the distant past. We are better than this and our laws should reflect this.
