It is extremely horrific that a dog would be trained to kill wild animals that were trapped and released into an enclosed area. Where will these wild animals come from? Illegal trapping? Pest control companies? I don't understand the reasoning behind it. Most dogs are trained to retrieve birds or to flush them out of the bushes. Dogs can also be used to hunt deer. So where do foxes coyotes and rabbits fit in here? It comes down to 2 things: 1. the dog owner will get his thrills watching the mutilation and probably record it and share on social media. 2. The Ministry will profit from this gruesome activity and lay blame on the dogs for the the barbaric demise of these helpless, scared creatures.
