I strongly oppose 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 who are subjected to the various methods used to train dogs to hunt. 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 for sport.
There is no need to open applications for train and trial spaces after 25 years; rather, the phase-out of existing spaces should continue.
