Stop the Slaughter: Help Ban Canned Hunting of Exotic Hunting in Texas [View all]

Species Unite.com

Across the United States, thousands of exotic animals, including zebras, antelope, kangaroos, wildebeest and even endangered species, are being bred and raised on private ranches -- not for conservation, but for killing.

These non-native animals are confined within fenced enclosures where wealthy hunters pay thousands of dollars to shoot them and turn their bodies into gruesome trophies.

Texas is home to more of these operations than any other state, with an estimated 500 ranches offering "canned hunts" of exotic wildlife.

Because the animals hunted in these parks are killed for trophies, they are often shot in the abdomen to preserve the head, which results in slow, agonizing deaths.
Some are killed with bows and arrows, a method that can cause extreme suffering and prolonged death from blood loss and internal injuries.
