I am writing to ask you to please reconsider the inhumane proposal to allow captive wildlife to be used as bait to train hunting dogs. It saddens me to think that unnecessary trauma and harm will be inflicted on wild animals just to train dogs to be more efficient at hunting them down. Most hunting is done for sport or entertainment and not for survival. Therefore, the Ministry for Natural Resources should be protecting our wildlife not supporting/ encouraging hunters to torment and exploit it. Shame on you for even considering this!
