Previously living in Northern Ontario, I completely understand why hunters use animals to retrieve and to use scent for trials. I believe that training dogs properly is vital not only for the safety of other animals (going after any animal can be dangerous) but it is about the safety of the dog as well. What I do have an issue with is the use of fox and coyote in this scenario. I have eaten many wild things but not once have I been tempted to eat coyote or fox. Hunting is to provide food for your family in a respectful way, not for the thrill of the hunt. Perhaps a change to allow new licensing but doing so with the understanding it would be rabbit, partridge or pheasant etc?Meeting in the middle might be the most productive for the 2 groups who will comment about this change when their beliefs are polar opposites.
