I object very strenuously to this practice of using captive animals as bait! Simply put, it is cruel and barbarous ( to say nothing of the fact that that it is an UNNECESSARY practice ). I demand that it be stopped IMMEDIATELY.
What especially upsets me is that this has the air of secrecy about it and, furthermore, will not likely have any ''checks and balances'' that are observed in connection with it, in order to preserve animal populations within acceptable limits.
Far too many animal species are currently on the Endangered List because of urban development, and I have NO desire to see foxes, rabbits and coyotes added to it because of reckless and unregulated practices such as take place at these trial-and-train facilities for dogs!!!
I am not even a fan of hunting in any form, to be honest. However, at least hunters are subjected to limits and rules that are actively and vigourously enforced.
