Call for regulations after numerous cats, dogs caught in wildlife traps in B.C.
A Kimberley, B.C. man had to jump into action to save his dog’s life in the winter of 2020, after the pooch got caught in a conibear hunting trap while tagging along with its owners on a cross-country ski.
That year, Brillings was one of 10 British Columbians whose cat or dog was caught in a wildlife trap, according to records obtained by wildlife-protection organization The Fur-Bearers through a Freedom of Information request. When Brillings reported his dog’s close shave, he said the trap was only about 20 feet off the trail and baited with raw meat. He also noted there were no signs around to warn people it was an active trapping area.
