We need to end all such practices asap. I firmly reject the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in Ontario.
Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals that are subjected to various methods used to train dogs to hunt. It is horrible beyond belief. We must do better. We must BAN this asap.
Wildlife should never be taken from their natural environments and held captive by hunters. It’s especially cruel to use rabbits, coyotes, and foxes as pawns for hunters to train dogs and hold competitions. OMG...how can this be allowed in a so-called civilized society
Opening applications for train and trial spaces after 25 years is a massive step backward into the past. These facilities have no place in Ontario.
Instead of opening new applications, the province’s existing 24 facilities need to be closed immediately. This is disgusting and I believe that most Canadians would be appalled and ashamed. Do not issue any more licences and take steps to stop this and close all the existing facilities. Shame on you and shame on us. STOP THIS NOW>>>IMMEDIATELY.
