This sounds like a barbaric practice that will only result in substantial harm to native wildlife that are already trying to co-exist in a rapidly changing environment.
To intentionally terrorize and cause harm to wild creatures to support a hobby is incomprehensible.

This is HORRIFYING. You’re allowing people to pen defenceless animals, despite the fact that most hunting in Canada is for sport not survival, and leave them terrified before letting their dogs hunt them down and kill them? For training? So they can be better at killing local wildlife? For FUN?

This is an appalling and cruel practice. Please do not allow this. Poor wildlife should be able to live out its life without being subject to such a cruel death.
This proposal is absolutely shameful, and promotes animal abuse to one for the highest degrees. Please DO NOT pass this proposal, it is built on the pure greeed of select individuals and their friends. Put the animals first, not cruelty disguised as "hobby" or "Sport".
The slaughter of wild animals in the interest of training hunting dogs is inhumane and cruel. I strongly urge the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s to not allow new licenses, and the transfer of existing licenses, for dog train and trial areas in Ontario.

I don't see the benefit to nature, and the human race. Treating animals and nature cruelly is not the best path forward. To trap helpless animals to be torn apart by a pack of dogs is barbaric and inhumane. We are emotional beings with intelligence and protect those that can't protect themselves.

This is animal exploitation and cruelty, and there is no reason for us to facilitate this inhumane practice. There are other ways to train hunting dogs for competitions that do not require these barbaric practices.
