RE: 019-3685
I am against the proposal to amend the Act to allow new dog training and trial (hunting wildlife) areas. As was intended in 1997, the existing train and trial areas should continue to be phased out, with no licence transfers permitted under the law. Capturing animals (e.g. foxes, coyotes) from the wild and "acquiring" rabbits/hares or any other animal, and confining them to an area for repeated high stress (fight-or-flight) proximity to predators (trained hunting dogs) is cruel and ( I believe) morally indefensible.
Thank you for considering my request.
