We the signed, want the trapping of our wildlife banned in our country; as it is in all other civilized nations.
A trapped animal is a terrified animal in unimaginable agony, exposed to predators and the elements, dehydration, starvation, and extreme psychological distress in separation from their young--finally meeting a brutal end.
Traps are indiscriminate---many family pets and unintended animals have suffered and died in traps. Children are always at risk for stepping into a trap, particularly since trappers want to expand their range to national parks.
Since trappers only comprise 2% of our population, and have openly stated "the main reason I trap is not for financial gain, but for fun--you never know what you will get!"
Let us move out of the dark ages of trapping - say 98%!
