Commentaire
- The province needs to publish the research findings it references on the ERO page so that the public can make informed comments on this consultation.
- Laws around trapping need to prioritize animal welfare and should be informed by current, peer-reviewed science, not guidelines created by the commercial fur industry.
- Relaxing cable restraints are not certified traps under the Agreement on International Humane Trapping Standards, to which Canada is a party to.
- Killing and restraining snares should not be used to trap wildlife in Ontario as research has shown that they result in negative animal welfare outcomes for both target and non-target animals. Snares are not certified traps under the Agreement on International Humane Trapping Standards and should be prohibited in the province.
- Many countries around the world have banned snares entirely and it’s time for the province to end the use of these devices in Ontario as well.
- Farmers should be encouraged to use non-lethal, predator-friendly farming methods instead of trapping wildlife.
