Re: Dogs Hunt Penned Animals
The government is set to allow more facilities that allow dogs to learn how to hunt coyotes, foxes and rabbits by placing these animals in an enclosed area with the dogs. Hunters call this is a "sport." So, to make it clear, dogs attacking and ripping apart captive coyotes, and helpless foxes and rabbits that have no chance of survival is a "sport." What is the difference between this and dog fighting, cock fighting and other violent, inhumane activities? None. This activity is sickening and should be totally banned,not expanded. It's time for killing animals for "sport" versus food to become socially and legally unacceptable.
The irrational logic of allowing this activity to happen legally so it won't go underground makes zero sense. With this type of rational, let's not have any laws regulating decent behaviour because it will only go underground if we forbid it.
I'm embarrassed to live in a province that allows this kind of atrocity to exist. Ban these "sports."
