Require police carry tranquilizer guns and ban use of police firearms on animals

Petition Details

Please require that the police have tranquilizer guns and training for the safe sedation of animals. Make it law that police firearms cannot be used on dogs and other animals.

Additional Information

Sedating an animal is much more ethical than shooting them. Shooting animals or pets can cause a lot of anger, trauma and distress in the community. We think this is also detrimental for the police and their community relations.
