Comment
Ontario’s proposed amendments to restraining snares are problematic as no peer-reviewed research has been provided to support the change, they prioritize the interests of the commercial fur industry and the farming sector instead of the welfare of wild animals, and there is no consideration for the impact on animal welfare for the wildlife subjected to these devices as a result of these changes.
Please consider banning all snares period. They are cruel and also capture other animals as well … like pets.
My question is why do we care what trappers think? There is no excuse for such inhumane treatment … let’s start thinking about how to stop the suffering of these animals instead of money.
