To capture and use wildlife…

To capture and use wildlife for training hunting dogs is both archaic, inhumane and a step backwards on the evolutionary scale. Just because the Ministry is receiving requests does not mean it is acceptable! To even consider bringing back licensing that has not been allowed for decades is absolutely astounding and a lack of progressive thinking. We are not in the dark ages. This is catering to an extremely small segment of the population at the cost of our dwindling wildlife. And at the cost of our humanity. If racing greyhounds can be trained with fake rabbits, why not hunting dogs? Creativity is needed here, not prehistoric thinking!
