animal suffering.........
« on: July 26, 2003, 11:16:21 AM »
check this out
                                                                                                      The leg-hold trap has been around for centuries. In the past 40 years, great improvements have been made in the name of animal comfort. Coil spring traps that close tight were all tested. The results will surprise most hunters. The animals were attached with sensors and their breathing and heart rate was monitored. The facts were; the animals only fought the trap for about 15 minutes. Then the animal started to calm down. At about 1 hour after being in the trap, the heartbeat and breathing returned to near normal levels. So, you see, it is a myth that the animal is sitting there in pain being tortured the whole time. You can't argue with scientific facts.

At just before daylight, the animal would again fight the trap because this is the normal time for the animal to go to its bedding area and sleep for the day. After that the animal normally curls up and goes to sleep. So, an animal in a trap that is checked everyday is not in any great pain. In fact, the study proved that some forms of hunting with dogs was MORE stressful for the animals then the trap.

I agree with you Craig but will change one thing you wrote.  I substituted your term " LEGHOLD  TRAP" with foothold.  When you use the proper trap that is what you  get is paw or foot.  Good post

Craig,one thing you will find out about those who oppose trapping.DON'T CONFUSE THEM WITH FACTS, they care nothing about the facts--most are opposed to taking an animals life--pure and simple. The trap is the tool we use so they are opposed to it. Tom

I know what you are talking about, I was talking to my bro. n law and he said they should ban trapping in Texas because it is cruel. Now let me remind you this is the smae guy that hunts,fishes, and outdoorstuff, he also huts with a .222 thompson contender thats the gun he shot that big sow  with he shot her twice in the side and we found her and we killed her with a 9mm handgun and a 22 rifle now how much do you think that pig was suffering waiting for us to come back?...........

You can't argue with scientific facts.


Sure you can, you would be wrong, but the animal starvation and disease advocates do it all of the time. Granted they are soulless evil retards, but they will argue till time ends.
