The New York State Legislature has just passed one of the nation's
strongest laws to ban "canned hunts" of tame animals for trophies. The
legislation, A4609a and S2735a, prohibits the shooting of any exotic
mammal held captive in a fenced enclosure of any acreage. Canned hunts
are cruel, unsporting, and can spread dangerous diseases to native
wildlife populations. Even most hunters oppose the activity because it
violates the concept of "fair chase."
Please contact Governor Pataki
and urge him to sign this important legislation into law.
