BILL TO ELIMINATE CRUEL TRAPS INTRODUCED
PLEASE SIGN AND SHARE!
From Born Free U.S.A.
______________________________________
Dear Friends,
Body-gripping traps are outdated and inhumane devices used to hunt furbearers. But equally outdated is the fact that they can still be set in many national wildlife refuges. Thankfully, Congresswoman Nita Lowey (D-NY) has reintroduced the Refuge From Cruel Trapping Act (H.R. 3513)
http://www.bornfreeusa.org/legislation.php?p=3949&more=1 and we need your help to get Congress to act quickly on this legislation – for the sake of wildlife and nature-lovers alike.
H.R. 3513 would ban all body-gripping traps — such as snare, Conibear, and steel-jaw leghold — from being used or possessed on national wildlife refuges (NWRs). The brutality of these traps is shocking; they can crush limbs and organs, and animals often remain trapped for days, in massive pain, before dying. Trapped animals can suffer severe physical injury, psychological trauma, thirst, hypothermia, and predation. Some animals chew off their own limbs to escape, only to die days later. The suffering caused by trapping is not limited to target animals; domestic pets, endangered species, and humans often become caught in traps, resulting in painful injury or death.
NWRs were established to provide a safe haven in which wild species could thrive and people could enjoy the serenity of nature. Animals and people should have the freedom to enjoy these refuges without the threat of stepping into a body-gripping trap. Please urge your Representative to support this crucial bill.
We have a historic opportunity to make a real difference for magnificent wildlife across the country!
For the animals,
Kate
O
ABOUT 100 COUNTRIES - EXCLUDING THE U.S., CANADA AND Russia - have so far banned the use of leghold traps on the grounds that they are inhumane and indiscriminate.
Britain (where they are called gin traps) was one of the first countries to outlaw them in the 1950's and the European
Union banned steel-jaw leghold traps in 1995.
Thank you to Ole Vikshaaland

LA CONSIDERING TRAP BAN
CITY TO CONSIDER BANNING ANIMAL TRAPS IN LOS ANGELES
LA CONSIDERING TRAP BAN
12/05/2013 - 09:55
What a year for the animals of the west coast. On the heels of our own trap ban victory in Nanaimo, news hit this week that the city of Los Angeles, California, is moving forward with their desire to ban traps.
The original motion, introduced earlier this year by Councilman Mitch O’Farrell, points to the inherent cruelty of traps as the primary motivator for the proposed ban. While Council had been expected to instruct the City Solicitor to write up a by-law, instead the motion has been passed to the Animal Services Commission for further review.
According to a report in Echo Park-Silver Lake Patch, “once the Animal Services Commission hears a report from officials of the Animal Services Department, the council's Personnel and Animal Welfare Committee will again take up O'Farrell's proposal before it is sent back to the full City Council.”
We applaud Councilman O’Farrell’s efforts and will continue to monitor this situation closely.

CITY TO CONSIDER BANNING ANIMAL TRAPS IN LOS ANGELES
The ban was proposed by CD13 Councilman Mitch O'Farrell.
A proposal that would outlaw animal traps in the city was referred today Los Angeles' Animal Services Commission, which is expected to consider the issue next month.
The City Council had been scheduled to consider instructing the city attorney to write an ordinance barring "the use of animal traps or snares that maim, kill or cause inhumane suffering," but the issue was instead referred to the commission, which overseas the Animal Services Department.
Trapped animals sometimes chew off their legs when struggling to break free, and snares could crush animals' vital organs or strangle them, according to a motion introduced earlier this year by Councilman Mitch O'Farrell.
Such traps are already illegal for the public to use in Los Angeles. Only employees of pest control companies with city permits are allowed to trap animals considered a nuisance or dangerous.
Once the Animal Services Commission hears a report from officials of the Animal Services Department, the council's Personnel and Animal Welfare Committee will again take up O'Farrell's proposal before it is sent back to the full City Council.
O'Farrell, who last month asked that the ban be "fast-tracked," said the traps can also ensnare all manner of unintended critters, including rabbits, deer, birds, cats and dogs.
Once caught in traps or snares, animals might be killed by other animals or suffer from dehydration, blood loss, hypothermia or drowning, according to The Humane Society, which O'Farrell's motion references.
Meanwhile, trapped coyotes, foxes and wolves face "slow and painful" deaths because they have strong neck muscles that allow them to "prolong their struggle," according to the Humane Society.
The Humane Society "advises that trapping should not be considered a wildlife strategy, in that trapping does not ensure a stable wildlife population, control disease or control nuisance wildlife," according to the motion.
State law requires that any wildlife that is trapped must be released on site or euthanized, and that the traps must be monitored daily.
