I'm leaving this response in the hopes that the purposed revitalisation of Train and Trial areas is dismissed and the cruel/ immoral activity is not brought back.

Many prey animals are prone to stress and along with health issues, stress of captivity and being hunted by predators will have a negative mental impact on them as well. Housing them in captivity to be chased, pursued, or possibly captured after a hunt is in no way a humane or civilized process.

Canada has progressed so much in animal welfare that bringing back such an inhumane and unnecessary activity would be a huge step backwards. Why would we want to encourage mistreatment or harm to animals when so many people have in the past, and still currently do fight for improved animal welfare. We were heading in the right direction as a country, don't take your eye off the mark now by bringing back Train and Trial areas.

Thank you for reading, but i do hope that you heard what was said.
