I feel this practice goes…

I feel this practice goes against the direction of society. This is very clearly animal abuse. There are more humane methods of reducing the numbers of certain species in the area that don't involve animals being trained to kill or animals lives being used in such an inhumane way for training purposes.

Science requires scrutiny and paperwork before allowing animals to be used for testing purposes, and their ultimate goal is to improve lives. Has there been any research involved to determine that this is the best solution for overpopulation? Is there any other possible solution that wouldn't involve spending money and unnecessarily harming animals?

Please don't let this go through. I vote against this action.
