Please help stop Ontario gov't from allowing cruel torture training practice on wildlife
Ontario Premier, Doug Ford, is reinstating and encouraging a cruel dog training technique. This technique is one that the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNR) has been phasing out since 1997: **dogs running down terrified captive coyotes, foxes and rabbits who are kept penned in tiny enclosures in between torture sessions where they are mutilated.**
This suffering and pain inflicted on the wild animals doesn’t begin with the terror of them being run down and sometimes killed by the dogs. No. It begins in the wild, where they fall victims to the traps used to ‘harvest’ them.
These barbaric training methods do not align with views and principles of citizens. Ford likely wants to increase these facilities so more of his friends can profit.
