This is animal cruelty - both to the dogs and the defenceless animals that caught in these enclosures. Mankind is doing all it can to destroy nature with its senseless over-consumption and abuse of natural resources. We are losing biodiversity as species are being wiped out everyday.

Allowing for new train and trial areas and licence transfers is an altogether different issue than allowing hunting, tracking and training in general. I say this to clearly separate the two in this argument.

This an inhumane practice - in your list of considerations (wildlife, economics, etc) you did not consider the physical and psychological impact on wildlife - cruel, needless suffering. Please shut these training centres down
These incredibly cruel, ignorant and barbaric places should be getting shut down and banned, not expanding, as is proposed! Shame on those who make money off of torture and killing of living, sentient beings!

This is a barbaric and horrifying practice that was wisely being phased out. The idea of subjecting animals to being hunted down in captivity to be brutally and violently murdered has no place in our society!

Absolutely ridiculous to propose these changes!
Are we going back to the middle ages on animal cruelty? With all sorts of animal abuse, removal of natural habitats and wildlife being killed, how can this government propose to allow this?

Penned hunting is simply cruelty to animals and for the government to support it is disgusting. As was the case with dog fights, cock fights, and the like, the government should be looking for ways to stop this practice instead of promoting it.

What an appalling idea. We have struggling and underfunded wildlife centres, animal extinction at unprecedented rates, wildfires and industry destroying animal habitat and a tiny minority who who think this animal cruelty is fun.

Please do not allow ERO 019-3685 to go through. It is barbaric and all animals are Gods creatures. There is a law against cruelty to animals - ALL ANIMALS
What a horribly archaic practice. It is unbelievable to me that this law will be ammended to issue more licenses to enclosed "training " areas. What is next cock fights, dog fights? This is a disgusting practice.

I am beyond appalled that anyone earning their living through my hard earned tax dollars would even put forward such a barbaric proposal. Have we not evolved past such cruel practices as this?

I am absolutely against this cruel proposal. If you want continue to call yourself civilised society these kind of activities should stay prohibited. NO to this proposal!!!
This is an inhumane, archaic and needless activity. I strongly oppose the issuance of any new licenses and urge that any current dog train and trial areas be closed. The whole thing is barbaric and any politician supporting these gladiatorial spaces will lose my vote.
Leave animals alone , before we destroy our bio systems. Things will backfire on us eventually and not only the animals are suffering now , but we will have to pay the price.
Please leave these animals alone, we have taken a lot away from them already . Stop the suffering of these living beings.
