I have attended several meetings over the last 15 yrs in the region I live in regarding wildlife control. The number one thing they say is that 'the animals were here first', and that we need to be respectful of that. We have continual problems with coyotes in our area and concerns for our pets, kids, family. We are warned how to deal with the animals and we are observant of that. It makes sense to not encourage foxes or coyotes. I could be charged just for leaving a food source anywhere on my property or public land nearby, but here you are suggesting that you should be allowed to capture coyotes to be the prey for hunting dogs and to limit them to a controlled area to 'train' this hunt to kill process. This is animal abuse. If I let my dog loose and trained it to attack kill a wild animal - I would be charged. It is abuse.
Ontario Gov't needs to act in the same manner as they expect Ontario residents to act.
