Wildlife should never be taken from their natural environments and held captive by hunters. It’s especially cruel to use rabbits, coyotes, and foxes as pawns for hunters to train dogs and hold competitions.
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.

These facilities should be illegal. This is clear and obvious animal cruelty and it's unbelievable that anyone would consider this a 'sport'.

This is so wrong!!!! It’s bad enough how the Ontario government allows it’s own citizens to be homeless. Now you want to torture animals? It’s 2023, we need to be better than this. It’s highly unethical to treat animals in this way. I do not agree with this at all.

I utterly 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. To be one of the animals and having to be tortured over and over until I'm ultimately killed by the dogs is barbaric and unnecessary!

How this is even being allowed to be discussed in a first world country is beyond me. But it goes without saying that this is an abominable practice that only furthers the interests of some people at the cost of basic decency and compassion.

Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals who are subjected to various methods used to train dogs to hunt.
This is a cruel and unnecessary practice, with other options available to train the dogs, why would you go out of your way to harm another being. This is barbaric and I cannot believe I need to encourage our government not to use this archaic practice.
The language of the proposal does not address safety of the animals listed, both domestic and captured.
This proposal is written in the context that wildlife is property and that the fate of even domestic rabbits could be ruled as prey for this sport by the state

Penning [wild] animals for the purpose of hunting them even if you call it training is repulsive and inhumane. Period. There is no moral ground to be claimed. I hear banjoes from the bridge.
