I was stunned to read in today’s The Hamilton Spectator of the existence of penned hunting to train dogs. I have heard of bear baiting and bull fights in other times or places but I never imagined such cruel practices as this penned hunting being allowed in Ontario. Now I read they are to be expanded. This is certainly a huge step backwards. What can be done to disallow it?
I have never understood this hatred of foxes, in particular —fox hunting by English aristocracy. I keep dogs and cats myself and leave food for squirrels, rabbits, chipmunks. What is wrong with hunters who do penned hunting? How can they do such savage destruction? How can they sleep at night?
