This proposal is not only cruelty to animals, it is unneccessary. There are other ways to train without the use of live animals. It has been done for years with dead animals or "scent" bags without the need to have the animals kill. As a prior president of the Bullmastiff national dog club, a flock dog bred with the intent to capture potchers and kill their dogs, I am well aware of the dangers of promoting the kill instinct. This should be managed and monitored closely and the dangers minimized.
