I firmly reject the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in Ontario. This is a cruel practice from beginning to end, and should not be allowed to continue.

I read the proposal and see no reason for it to be implemented. More cruelty to wildlife. Why are any of these spaces in existence in the first place, if not for the benefit of sport-hunters? That there are competitions and judges means its for pleasure, not for ecological benefit. Read more

Hello. This inhumane and cruel practice should be stopped entirely, not expanded. NO animal deserves to be tortured in this way EVER!! Absolutely no new licenses should be granted and all existing ones revoked! Wildlife death pens are not OK in any way, shape or form!

How cruel, disgusting and barbaric can we be. I am utterly embarrassed to be from province has not outlawed this and is considering allowing more facilities. I can guarantee that any politicians that support this will never receive my vote.

I support the expansion of Coyote pens because opening pens will ensure less hound hunters trespassing on private property causing disturbance with the public. These facilities are needed to train hunting dogs and both the pen owners and hunters have the animals best interest at heart.

“New train and trial areas were last approved to be established in 1997 and were intended to be phased-out over time”. Phased-out over time is the key here. Having less, hopefully none would be the ideal goal. Not granting new liscences or issuance of new liscences… Read more

Opening applications for train and trial spaces after 25 years is a massive step backward into the past. There is no need for such facilities, Ontario is already falling behind the rest of the world in our outdated practices. These facilities have no place in Ontario! Read more

This is barbaric and inhumane. How disgusting and backwards to allow more of these horrific facilities to operate. The cruelty that these wild animals endure and will continue to endure at the hands of the government is appalling. Read more
