MATTERS NOT ON THE PRINTED AGENDA None PUBLIC CHARGE Chair Marshall read the public charge as written in the agenda and as contained in the regulations governing the Board. C. PUBLIC HEARINGS 1. ANIMAL CONTROL ORDINANCE Dr. Anne Gross, Chair of the Animal Control Task Force, explained that two years ago the Board of Health became concerned about the extensive increase in the animal control budget which included the animal control department itself, which is located in the Health Department, and the animal shelter. At that time, under the auspices of the Board of Health a subcommittee was formed. Two months ago the County Commissioners gave this committee a charge and appointed additional members to serve. The primary focus was placed on the current problems with animal control enforcement and what could be done to help the situation. The final proposed Animal Control Ordinance is the subject of the public hearing. Dr. Gross identified the members of the task force and asked that Don Ingram review the contents of the Ordinance. Mr. Ingram stated the intent of the task force was to address some of the problem points that had been raised by the public to the 2 Commissioners. A comprehensive view was taken of the animal control program in the County to draft an Ordinance to address the current and future issues the County will face. He identified several of the major changes in the Ordinance: 1. Animal Control Director - it is recommended that the animal control program for Orange County be placed under an animal control director who has a background and training in animal control issues. 2 . Domesticated Livestock - the Ordinance addresses some of the concerns expressed by the cattlemen in the County. 3 . Licensing and Registration - a differential licensing fee schedule is recommended in the Ordinance. 4 . Control of animals - the Ordinance encourages throughout responsible pet ownership. 5. Restraint of animals - standards for the length of a leash and standards for insuring the proper humane treatment of animals is included in the Ordinance. 6. Steel Leghold Traps - the Ordinance bans the use of steel jaw traps but does provide for a permit under certain circumstances. Concerns about humans and pet animals being caught in the traps were addressed. 7. Standards are set out in the Ordinance for various classes of institutes which house animals. 8. Penalties for violators of the Ordinance are listed. The Animal Control Officer will be given some responsibility for enforcing the provisions of the Ordinance. In answer to a question from Planning Board Member Chris Best, Mr. Ingram clarified that the Ordinance sets out standards for the resale of animals and does not address the problem of dognaping. Planning Board member Peter Kramer asked if there is a provision for the compensation of livestock if killed. Mr. Ingram reported there is a provision in the State Statutes which states that the owner of livestock whose stock is damaged by another animal can through civil action file for compensation. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPEN FOR CITIZEN'S COMMENTS WAYNE WIGGINS spoke in opposition to the Ordinance stating there is no need for the Ordinance in the County and ask that the Ordinance be put to a vote of the people. EMILY WEINSTEIN spoke in support of the ban of the leghold trap stating that it is cruel and should be banned throughout the world. It causes extreme pain for the wild animals and also for domestic animals. It is barbaric and should be banned. BILL BREEZE made reference to Section 4 and expressed opposition to this section. He stated that Section 11 which requires dogs to be tied in the back of pickup trucks is not necessary. If a dog is restrained he will try to get lose and get hurt. This restriction should not be placed on the citizens of Orange County. The impact of this section needs to be reviewed. He stated he lost several thousand dollars worth of timber because of the beavers. The fox population has increased over the years. He uses traps and stated they do not hurt animals if the traps are monitored regularly. The Ordinance is a good start but the impact needs to be determined before approval. 3 GILBERT PETTY spoke in opposition of the ban of the leghold traps. He spoke about depredation of livestock and the overpopulation of racoons, muskrats, and the beavers. The beavers dam up the water and flood the fields. Muskrats cause a problem in the fish ponds. The only way to prevent problems is to control the population of these animals. Rabies are spread by these wild animals. The State has humane guidelines that must be followed. He stated he is a state licensed trapper. The leghold steel jawed trap is the most essential weapon against wild animals. The State also regulates the size of the traps. DEAN A. DETER spoke about the depredation of cattle. He endorsed the proposed Ordinance stating that nearly every livestock producer in Orange County has suffered some lost over the years due to freeroaming dogs. The problem is not primarily caused by wild or hunting dogs but by pets whose owners who do not respect the rights of others. DR. ANNE GROSS spoke about the steel leghold trap. She expressed support for the ban on the traps stating that there are alternatives that can be used that are a lot more humane. DR. E. V. VANSTEE commented on the standards for facilities that house animals. These facilities have been divided into three categories - commercial kennels, non-commercial kennels and pet stores. Pet owners should be able to feel assured that when their pets are boarded that these animals are going to be cared for according to the same high standards the owners have provided. He stated that quite often cruelty complaints arise in connection to private ownership of groups of animals. The standards for non-commercial kennels will provide public access to these facilities in case of complaints. He pointed out that if an animal falls out of the back of an open pickup truck that not only may the fall cause harm to the animal but may cause a potential traffic hazard. He explained the cross tie method that is recommended. He spoke about the steel leghold traps and the injuries caused by these traps. DR. JOHN W. GRANDY , Vice-President of the Wildlife Organization for the Humane Society for the United States stated that across the United States communities are developing ordinances which provide comprehensive regulations to protect the health and safety of pets, domestic animals and people, to prohibit cruelty to animals and to provide adequate community financial support for the critical services provided by animal control. As a biologist, he stated that saying trapping will prevent the overpopulation of animals is wrong. Most wild animals will limit their own population through natural means. Trapping is primarily done because trappers sell furs. It is inaccurate that trapping will keep the population disease free. Trappers are more likely to catch healthy animals than those that are unhealthy or diseased. When animals contract rabies they die. There are alternatives to the leghold trap when trapping is necessary. The leghold trap is cruel and inhumane. On behalf of the Humane Society of the United States he urged the adoption of the Ordinance. JON DENSBACH , member of the North Carolina Network for Animals, made comments about the health of the wildlife population. Because of the population growth in the County, animal habitat and homes are disappearing. Animals need time to search out for new homes and to adapt to new surroundings. Traps take young healthy animals while natural populations regulate themselves by taking the weak and sick animals. • 4 DR. WAYNE JORDAN supports the ordinance with a few exceptions. He opposes the fees as outlined for licensing and permits. He indicated this is just another tax. The requirements as set forth in the Ordinance for the non- commercial kennel is more red tape and he is opposed to this section, stating there should be no fee for the non-commercial kennel. He believes that the section pertaining to dogs riding in the back of a pickup truck is unnecessary. He suggested that the first line of the section dealing with hunting dogs be deleted. DIETRICH HAUGWITZ presented and read a letter from Nancy Rich, President of the North Carolina Network for Animals. She urged the ban of the leghold trap stating that leghold traps are a danger to hikers, children and pets. Mr. Haugwitz added his endorsement to the ban of the leghold trap. The device is a monsterous and extremely cruel device and other control devices are available. He presented for the record some documents from a study done in New Jersey. BILL MISHOE referred to the differential fee schedule stating it should be deleted from the Ordinance. He doesn't feel that it is necessary to regulate non-commercial kennels. He referred to the statement in the Ordinance that says a dog must be in the presence of its owner. He explained that when hunting, you keep up with a dog by the sound and not by the actual presence of that dog. He expressed opposition to the section referring to the transport of dogs in the back of a pickup truck. JACKIE STROUBLE spoke in support of the proposed Ordinance. The Ordinance addresses those changes which have come about due to growth in the area. The cost for the control of animals falls on the taxpayer. She is a volunteer that helps take care of wildlife that is injured or hurt. The wild animals are to be respected. She supports the ban on the leghold trap stating there is not a shortage of rabbit, quail or turkey. PAT SANFORD , Executive Director of the Animal Protection Society, stated that the Animal Protection Society fully supports the recommendation of the Animal Control Task Force and the Society stands ready to assist the County in the implementation of this animal control program. She pointed out that there is reason to have in the Ordinance a depredation clause. There are thousands of cases where domestic animals and humans have been injured by a leghold trap. She talked about the increasing cost to the County because of the lack of a strong Animal Control Ordinance. Animal problems will continue to increase as growth in the County continues. The shelter is overcrowded and it gets worst each year. The number of animals must be controlled. This Ordinance will put into effect a differential licensing fee. She talked about the cat problems due to the increase in popularity. People must take responsibility for their animals to protect other animals and in particular livestock. Bite cases have increased. By requiring the dogs and cats to wear a rabies tag, it will be easier to trace the owner. She encouraged the Board to pass the Ordinance in its entirety. CYNTHIA WISE , member of the Board of the Animal Protection Society, read a letter from the North Carolina Humane Federation. The letter endorsed the Ordinance. It spoke about the leghold trap stating that it is illegal is over 60 countries. Ms. Wise stated she traps animals by using cages. The shelter has them available for loan. The trapped animal can then be relocated. JAMES WHITE spoke in support of the Ordinance with the exception of • the ban on leghold traps. He stated it doesn't seem germaine to the basic problems that prompted the Ordinance. The problems sited in this section should be dealt with as a separate issue and not in this Ordinance. DAVID DAVIS , member of the Board of Directors for the Eno River Association, objected to the differential fee schedule stating there are parts of rural Orange County that don't need this Ordinance. He emphasized that he doesn't need anyone coming to his home and telling him how to take care of his dogs. He asked that the Ordinance be restudied. GENE HANRANAN , told about a pet of his which got caught in a trap. He feels that the legislation should be temporary and that the County should work with the cattlemen to solve their problems. TOM GIDUZ talked about the spaying and neutering of dogs and the cost to the County of the unwanted animals. The only effective way to control the dog and cat population is through spaying and neutering. He noted that 3800 animals were put to sleep at the shelter last year. Animals who are wearing I.D. tags are traced and returned to their homes. He presented a petition with 1, 628 signatures of Orange County residents who supported the ban on the steel leghold trap and a petition with 335 non-Orange County signatures. JOAN CUNNINGHAM , former Director of the Animal Shelter in Guilford County and currently Assistant District Attorney in Durham County, spoke in support of the Ordinance. She has prosecuted under the State Animal Law and also the Durham County Ordinance. She stated that having an Ordinance with the specificity as this proposed Ordinance is a very valuable tool for a prosecutor or an animal control officer or for anyone who is in the business of enforcing animal laws or controlling animal behavior. The expanded section on definitions is very helpful and the expanded section on cruelty is very impressive. It complements State Law and serves as notice to the Community what this community, through its Board of Commissioners, feels is inappropriate and cruel behavior. The Ordinance is progressive and anticipates the problems that Orange County will face. She urged that the Commissioners pass the Ordinance as proposed. ALICE DAWSON stated that while the Ordinance will not prevent all the problems associated with animals, it will establish the tone of how the community feels is the proper way of dealing with animals and the responsibility of pet owners. The differential licensing will provide an incentive to people and encourage owners to have their animals spayed or neutered. MARGIE LINDEKE , veternarian, stated that animals live longer and healthier lives when they are neutered. She spoke in support of the leash law as contained in the Ordinance. She presented a petition with the signatures of fourteen veternarians who support the ban on the leghold trap. KAREN WYSOCKI , resident of Hillsborough, commented on the dogs and cats that live next door. She suggested that Section 21 be amended to include that the issue of odor be considered a nuisance. Under Section 17 - non-commercial kennels she suggested that "animals kept in large numbers for domestic enjoyment" be added to the phase animals "keep for children, etc. " be included. WILLARD WARD , member of the Animal Control Task Force, stated several objections to the proposed Ordinance. He referred to Section IV and objected to the differential licensing fee and the spaying of dogs. He feels some consideration should be made for the hunters in the County. With reference to Section VII, he stated that it is impossible for those who have non-commercial kennels to comply with the requirements in the Ordinance. He would like to see this section reworked. About Section IX - hunting dogs - he stated it is not practical to have a dog in your sight at all times and asked that this statement be deleted. He stated that Section XI which refers to the mistreatment of animals and specifically the requirement that a dog be restrained when riding in the back of a pickup truck should be deleted. BILL MCKINNEY , an employee of the Animal Shelter, spoke on the licensing of cats. He emphasized that people must be made to assume responsibility for their pets. The cat problem in the community is increasing. There are a lot of street cats that reproduce at a rapid rate and a lot are killed on the road. He stated that differential licensing provides an incentive to pet owners. The large number of cats has presented serious health and sanitation problems in many communities. Rabies is a continuous problem. FRANK MILLER opposed the kennel license and the differential licensing fee. His hunting dogs do not cause a problem. RANDALL WILSON , North Carolina Wildlife Commission, spoke to the prohibition of traps and noted that the Wildlife Resource Commission in North Carolina which is responsible for regulating traffic in the state views the leghold trap as one of the primary management tools for managing wild furbearing species. The trap is the only way to harvest these animals. There is a need to control the wild animal population. By controlling the animal population, a disease outbreak is less likely. The steel leghold trap is the most effective means to harvest these animals. He stated that the Ordinance needs some more work. NOTE: ALL THE PLANNING ITEMS LISTED ON THE AGENDA WERE CONTINUED TO JUNE 1, 1987, 7: 30 P.M. IN SUPERIOR COURTROOM. BILL W. LOVINGOOD stated he is a trapper and objected to all the sections referencing steel traps. JERRY ROBINSON , Director of the Health Department, made reference to the section on steel jaw traps and stated it was unclear that the depredation permit had to be issued in conjunction with the wildlife permit. He feels the present ordinance addresses those problems which have been identified as lacking in the present ordinance. He feels it appropriate that the new ordinance encourages spaying and neutering. In answer to a question from Commissioner Willhoit, Robinson stated that the Wild Animal Ordinance is not included in this proposed ordinance but is a separate ordinance still in effect. BARNEY PITTMAN stated that in the last twelve months he has lost seven cows because of dogs. The hunting dogs are not a problem. The beavers are a problem. He is not against traps. If you neuter your hunting dogs they get fat and lazy. The ordinance needs to be expanded to include the cat problem. He encouraged the Board to strengthen the ordinance to make the pet owners more responsible and let the wildlife people take care of the wild animals. ROBERT GREENBERG has been involved with the animal control in Oran7 ge County for fourteen years. He talked about the animal problem and the need to control the population of animals. All successful programs have two elements in common. The first is a strong ordinance that prevents animals from roaming and killing cattle and causing property damage and an ordinance that is enforceable. The second vital element is differential licensing. The higher fees for fertile dogs and cats is a must. It is the only way to get the animal population and the animal budget under control. This is a model ordinance. He asked that the Board approve it without any revisions. The leghold trap is primitive and should be banned. There are alternatives to the leghold trap. CARL WALTERS stated that everyone in the rural area has at least three dogs. He has lost cattle because of dogs running them to death. By the time the Dog Warren is called the dog is gone. Most of the owners are responsible but it is those few that are not. He has never found a wild dog -- they are stray dogs. The only place a steel trap is used is in the pond to catch the muskrats. The Ordinance does not dwell on those things about which farmers have problems. Pat Sanford said that the Ordinance was written to include the Cunabear trap. Commissioner Willhoit asked if there has been an approach where a differential fee is used with a provision for excluding hunting dogs. Pat Sanford indicated there have been some provisions for excluding show dogs but none for hunting dogs. Commissioner Willhoit suggested that this be addressed in the differential fee schedule. Motion was made by Commissioner Hartwell, seconded by Commissioner Carey that the public hearing be closed and that the Ordinance be referred to the Manager and the Attorney for their recommendation to be considered by the Board on June 16. Chair Willhoit stated that there are ambiguities in the Ordinance and that some of the numerical values are unreasonable. Commissioner Halkiotis asked that guidance be given to the Board with regard to the Statewide trapping law and what the County can and cannot do. Chair Marshall noted that because of budget implications the Ordinance needs to be brought back to the Board on June 16. Commissioner Carey pointed out that although it was specific problems that prompted the revisions in the Ordinance, that the Board asked the Task Force to be comprehensive in their approach and that is what the proposed Ordinance does. VOTE: UNANIMOUS. Chair Marshall announced that all other items on the agenda will be continued to June 1, 1987 and will be taken in the order they appear. ADJOURNMENT Motion was made by Commissioner Halkiotis, seconded by Commissioner Carey to adjourn the meeting. The next regular meeting will be held on June 16, 1987, 7: 30 p.m. in the Courtroom of the old Post Office, Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Shirley E. Marshall, Chair Beverly A.

June 2, 1987 Orange County Commissioners 106 East Margaret Lane Hillsborough, NC 27278 SUBJECT: Proposed Animal Control Ordinance REFERENCE: Public Hearing on subject, 5/26/87. As presidents of four primary hunting clubs in northern Orange County, we would like to take this opportunity to reemphasize the clubs ' position on the proposed Animal Control Ordinance. Three of the four clubs were chartered more than twenty 1986 membership of the four clubs exceededetwo hundred fifty members, with almost all members being community landowners. First of all, we are not opposed to the proposed ordinance, however, there are five items which we feel are unfair, unaffordable or not practical. The five items are: SECTION IV - ANIMAL LICENSE FEES "The fees of unspayed or unneutered dogs and cats shall be higher than those of neutered animals" . We strongly oppose this for previously stated reasons given at the public hearing. We support the same animal license fee for all animals. it will cost the same amount to register and track a cat or dog whether it has been neutered or not. This will be the most equitable license policy for all pet owners. SECTION VII PAGE 5 AND 7 - DEFINITIONS: NON-COMMERCIAL AND COMMERCIAL KENNELS We object to anyone being classified as kennel owners simply because they may own more than 5 animals for non-commerical kennel and more than 15 animals for commercial kennel. Webster' s dictionary defines establishment as "a place of business or residence with its furnishings and staff" . We propose you substitute "place of business" for establishment and delete the statements referring to the number of animals defining a kennel. SECTION IX PAGE 14 - RELATION TO HUNTING LAWS We propose the sentence requiring the hunter to be in the presence of the dog when hunting be deleted. As previously stated at the public hearing "this requirement is not practical and is not possible to comply with when hunting" . Although we consider all these issues critical to having an ordinance that is workable and acceptable, this is the most critical issue for it is impossible to comply with. SECTION XI PAGE 16 - ITEM H We strongly object to the following and propose that it be deleted. "It shall be unlawful for any person to transport an animal in the closed trunk of a vehicle, or transport it in the open bed of a pick-up truck or trailer without proper restraint" . SECTION XII PAGE 17 -- RESTRICTION ON USE OF STEEL JAW TRAPS We propose this section to be deleted in its entirety for previously stated reasons given at the public hearing. We offer these proposed changes so we may have an ordinance that is workable, affordable, acceptable as well as enforceable. Thank you for your support.

Here's How to Use the HSUS Trapping Awareness Kit The HSUS thanks you for offering to help spread the word about the tragic consequences of buying furs. The contents of this kit should enable you—working on your own or with the assistance of others—to begin an anti-trapping campaign in your community. Here are some suggested ways to use the materials enclosed. Inside, you'll find 10 camera-ready advertisements (5 each of a coyote and badger) that can be placed in local newspapers. We suggest that you meet with the publishers or managing editors of papers in your area and try to convince them that they would be providing a public service by running the ads free of charge. (Remember, however, newspapers are not required to run public service information.) If this approach fails, try enlisting several local businesses or civic leaders to cosponsor the ad, running their names at the bottom of the message. (The Humane Society of the United States grants permission for you to add your name or that of your animal-welfare organization to the advertisement. If, however, you want to run the names of commercial firms who may have purchased the ad space for you, you must obtain permission from The HSUS. Write: Permissions, The Humane Society of the United States, 2100 L Street, NW, Washington, DC 20037. Please include names and brief descriptions of commercial firms. We would greatly appreciate receiving a copy of any ad you successfully place.) You might also want to make photocopies of the advertisements and use them as mini-posters. As with the two larger posters inside this packet, obtain permission to hang them in community centers, libraries, schools, local businesses, or wherever you think they might draw public attention. Also, use photocopies as hand-outs when attending anti-fur demonstrations or rallies of any sort. Have them on hand if you set up displays or man anti-trapping booths at rallies, shopping malls, county fairs, or schools. Ask your friends to wear the enclosed "Every Fur Coat Hurts" decals at demonstrations and other functions, and adhere them to car windows or bumpers. The Close-Up Reports and "Trapped Animals" pamphlets (you'll find 5 of each in the packet) are excellent vehicles to educate the press, friends, neighbors, club members, etc. If you wish to use them as hand-outs, additional copies can be obtained in quantities by completing the enclosed order blank. You may want to refer to the sample letter to the editor when writing to area papers to express your opposition to trapping. Be sure to add any personal feelings, experiences, or comments that would be of particular interest to individuals in your community.

Washington, D.C. 20037 �vivrrev o Sample Material for Letters to the Editor Subject: Animal Trapping Introduction A letter to the editor of a newspaper or magazine can be an effective way to publicize the cruelties associated with trapping. A published letter places the humane viewpoint before the general public. It can also be used to rebut the comments of newsmakers whose opinions are contrary to those of humanitarians, and attract attention to an aspect of the trapping issue that has not been adequately addressed by the news media. A letter to the editor can also alert the public to an impending event, such as a legislative hearing on a bill to prohibit use of the steel-jaw trap. From time to time we all see material in a newspaper or elsewhere advocating or condoning trapping. We get angry--we want to respond, but we don't have the particular facts or material at hand for a good letter to the editor . To help alleviate this problem, The HSUS has included herewith discrete points that you might wish to use in letters to the editor. First, decide which point or points you would like to make. Second, compose your letter, editing our suggested material in. ways that reflect local circumstances and your primary concerns. Finally, be sure to keep in mind the style and format of the magazine or newspaper to which you are writing. Letters to the editor should make only one or two discrete points and should not be longer than 100 to 150 words. General Guidelines for Letters to the Editor There are general rules that should be followed in drafting a letter for publication in the opinion-editorial page of a newspaper or magazine. A letter to the editor should be brief and to the point. Writing should be limited to those comments that are necessary to the reader 's understanding of the trapping issue. A good rule of thumb is to make it no longer than two to three paragraphs. The letter should be legible and use correct grammar and proper punctuation. Information should be accurately presented and statistics referenced to their source. The writer should not criticize the motives or sincerity of persons who favor trapping. A letter to the editor should quickly capture the attention of the reader , persuasively explain the problem, offer realistic solutions, and recommend a course of action for L 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS FOR SUGGESTED POINTS Point Page Number Animals Trapped With Leghold Trap; Cruelty 4 Autumn and Leghold Trapping 4 Economics and Leghold Traps 5 Leghold Traps and Other Nations 5 Nontarget Animals; Leghold Trap 5 Trap Nonselectivity; Leghold Trap 5 Nontarget Animals; Trapping 6 Trapping and Wildlife Management 6 Trapping, Starvation, and Cruelty 6 Trapping and Starvation 7 Trapping and Being Emotional 7 Trapping and License Fees 7 Rabies, Other Diseases, and Trapping 8 Trapping and Healthy Wildlife Populations 8 Trapping and Wildlife Overpopulation 8 Fur Articles/Advertising and Glamour 9 Trapping, Fur, and Glamour 9 Trapping and Glamour 9 Charles Darwin and Banning Traps 9 Useful Facts and Concepts 10 ��� r 5 Economics and Leghold Traps Fur industry officials assert that trapping is an important source of income for many people. But trappers are not dependent on income derived from the steel-jaw trap. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources reports that during the 1983-84 "game" season, the state 's licensed trappers on average each spent 31 days trapping and earned only $5. 48 per day. Data collected by other state fish and game departments suggest that the average gross annual income of trappers is only $100 to $1,000 per year--money that could be earned from other forms of labor, probably with fewer hours of work and a smaller investment of capital. In fact, according to the most recent U.S. census, only 2,184 individuals nationwide consider themselves profes- sional trappers and hunters. Finally, and most importantly, as a nation, we must not shrink from ending the suffering and injury caused by the steel-jaw leghold trap just because a few people derive a little money from using this cruel device. Leghold Traps and Other Nations Most animals are trapped with the steel-jaw leghold trap. According to The Humane Society of the United States, 65 nations have banned the steel-jaw trap because it is a cruel device and causes torture. The United States should ban the device as well. Nontarget Animals; Leghold Trap The steel-jaw trap slams shut on any unsuspecting animal that steps on the triggering mechanism. In the fall of 1984, a boy in Minnesota lost four toes after stepping on a trap. Golden eagles, squirrels, hawks, and owls are among the unintended victims frequently caught in steel-jaw traps, as are dogs and cats. Pets and wild animals alike suffer excruciating pain, often chewing or wringing off their legs. Many pets rescued from traps must have a leg amputated. The Humane Society of the United States estimates that at least five million nontarget animals--including pets and wildlife--are tra p each year. The nonselective steel-jaw legholdtrr n apshouldubed banned. Trap Nonselectivity; Leghold Trap The steel-jaw trap will indiscriminately close on any animal that steps on the triggering mechanism, including nontarget animals such as golden eagles, dogs, cats, and deer. For the victims of steel-jaw traps, it does not matter why the traps were 7 strengthening the ecosystem of which all are a part. The next question, does trapping prevent starvation? The answer is almost certainly NO Actually, trapping kills healthy, active animals that are out searching for food, attempting to breed, etc. Sick, starving, or diseased animals tend to be inactive and do not travel the wooded "trails" where trappers set traps. The fact is, trapping is cruel commercial exploitation of our wildlife that this twentieth century nation and wildlife can live without. Trapping and Starvation Trappers claim that trapping is necessary to prevent starvation in wild animals. Such an assertion is ludicrous. Trapping is done because animal pelts are valuable. A few years ago, bobcat pelts were selling for as much as $650. each and bobcats were trapped in large numbers. All wild animals are potentially subject to starvation, but trappers seek to trap the valuable ones. No one has ever heard of trappers wanting to trap chickadees, cardinals, and many other "nongame" animals, even though all are subject to the rigors of winter and possible starvation. Trappers should be honest about their reasons for trapping, and the public should ban trapping as it has many other commercial uses of wildlife. Trapping and Being Emotional Many people in (name of community) want to end the cruelty and brutality caused by commercial trapping of fur animals. Trappers charge us with being "emotional. " Of course we are emotional; the subject is the destruction of millions of innocent, beautiful wild animals each year in the United States for the vanity of furs. Millions of nontarget animals, including pets, endangered species, and waterfowl, are also killed or maimed each year. Pet owners walking their pet in the woods watch and listen in horror as their pet 's head and leg are mashed in a trap. This cruelty is enough to make anyone justifiably emotional. Trapping is an antiquated form of cruelty and barbarism that should be banned. Trapping and License Fees Trappers often attempt to justify the commercial trapping of animals with the suggestion that license fees from trappers are dedicated to wildlife conservation. In my opinion, this is the kind of help that true conservation can do without. Trapping license fees are generally applied to the budgets of the state fish and game agencies to supervise activities associated with 9 Fur Articles/Advertising and Glamour Recently there appeared in this newspaper an advertisement/story (note: use whichever is appropriate) promoting fur coats as symbols of affluence and fashion. The glamorous photographs of beautiful models in fur garments belie the horrors by which wildlife is transformed into items of clothing. Each year in the United States, an estimated seventeen million wild animals are trapped for their fur. A majority of these animals are victims of the steel-jaw trap, an antiquated device used since 1823. Studies by wildlife biologists show that one-quarter to one-half of the animals caught in steel-jaw traps received crippling injuries, including torn flesh and ligaments and broken bones. Wild animals should not be trapped for vanity's sake. Remember, every fur coat hurts. Trapping, Fur, and Glamour The main reason for trapping is to sell skins for fur coats. Most trapping is done with either the Conibear trap or steel-jaw leghold trap, both of which are cruel and inhumane. The public no longer needs to wear furs for warmth; many suitable substitutes are available for coats. Let's protect our wildlife from unnecessary cruelty. We can start by banning trapping and encouraging people not to wear furs. Trapping and Glamour Many people believe that fur coats are beautiful. I believe that too, but only on their original owners. Fur animals-- whether ranch-raised or trapped--are often subject to incredible cruelty. As a society, we should no longer condone this cruelty. Let's leave the beautiful furs on the backs of animals-- raccoons, bobcats, and others--that own them. Furs are not glamorous clothing; they are a symbol of cruelty. Charles Darwin (Father of the Modern Theory of Evolution) and Banning Traps More than a century ago, Charles Darwin wrote of the steel- jaw trap, "Some who reflect upon this subject for the first time will wonder how such cruelty can have been permitted to continue in these days of civilization and no doubt if men of education saw with their own eyes what takes place under their sanction, the system would have been put an end to long ago. We shall be told that setting steel traps is the only way to preserve g but we cannot believe that Englishmen when their attentionise, 11 * Although precise figures are unavailable, Conibear traps and leghold traps account for almost all animals trapped each year in the United States. * The skins of many animals are required to make one fur coat.

Marshall : I write to express my support for the ordinance to ban the steel jaw leghold trap in Orange County. I hope you will vote to ban such traps on June 16 . I can see nothing good , and a great deal of bad, in them . Certainly they are a very inhumane way to deal with wild animals and, even if they weren't, they would still be a danger to pets and to children. I would like to think that our county is free of such devices . I would appreciate hearing your opinion about this issue . I hope you agree that traps are not an appropriate method of animal control . Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

I commend the task PatriciaForkan force and the council for the positive and far-reaching Vice President/Program g and Communications proposals in the proposed ordinance, most particularly, Dr.John W.Grandy those elements which would ban the use of cruel and Vice President/ inhumane traps. Wildlife and Environment Phyllis Wright Vice hyllis sident/ The hearings were long and tiring, and I noticed Companion Animals that issues became somewhat confused. For that reason, Dr.Michael W.Fox I want to take this opportunity to clarify, from my Scientific Director viewpoint as a professional biologist, the facts DIRECTORS regarding traps, trapping, and wildlife management Samuel A.Bowman issues such as disease transmission to humans, wildlife Dr.Carol Browning overpopulation, wildlife starvation, and disease and Coleman Burke disease transmission in wildlife populations. Irene Evans Regina B.Frankenberg Harold H.Gardiner Trappers suggest that steel traps are necessary to AliceR.Garey control rabies and other diseases of danger to Gisela H.Karlan John W.Kelly people. Analysis proves, however , that this is simply William Kerber not true. Skunks and bats are widely reported to be Dr.Amy Freeman Lee carriers of rabies. However , trappers rarely attempt Jack W.Lydman PP Y t p Virginia Lynch to trap skunks and never trap bats. Rather, trappers Cherie Mason use steel traps to trap animals whose skins have high John W.Mettler,III economic value. In short, trappers p John G.Mosher or ra ppers use steel traps to SusanPepperdine conduct a commercial enterprise, not to conduct a form O.J.Ramsey of "disease control. " Moreover, the National Academy Marilyn G.Sayler of Sciences reported in the early 1970 's that trapping Everett Smith,Jr. BrookSpeldel has no effect on the transmission of rabies because Robert F.Welborn rabies is such a virulent disease. K.William Wiseman HONORARY DIRECTORS Aida Flemming Virginia Milliken Andrew Wyeth Ms. Marshall June 12, 1987 Page Two Trappers often try to justify the use of steel traps by saying that such trapping is necessary to prevent overpopulation of wildlife. This assertion is simply inaccurate. First, animal populations have survived for millions of years without the intervention of man or traps to limit population. And, as biologists know, most wild animals tend to limit their own populations through natural means (i .e. , when populations go up, reproduction is reduced so that animal populations remain within the limits of their food supply) . In addition, contrary to assertions at the hearing by Mr. Randall Wilson, populations of fur-bearing and other animals do not normally fluctuate greatly in the absence of trapping. To be sure, wildlife populations do fluctuate somewhat. However, no better proof of the absence of major population fluctuations where steel jaw traps are not used can be found than to examine the status of animals in states where these traps have been banned. Florida, Rhode Island, Massachusetts and New Jersey have banned or largely banned trapping with the steel jaw trap; yet, none of these states have reported major fluctuations in wildlife populations or disease outbreaks among wildlife populations. Moreover, trappers generally only trap fur-bearing animals. Yet, other wildlife species such as songbirds and most rodents, which are not subject to any trapping, do not normally fluctuate to any significant degree. Thus, it can readily be seen, that trapping is not conducted and is not necessary to limit fluctuations in wildlife populations. A related claim is that the use of steel traps is necessary to limit wildlife disease and starvation and to maintain healthy wildlife populations. Contrary to this claim, the genetic makeup and size of animals largely determines which animals will succumb to disease and starvation. Trappers cannot know which animals they will trap because steel traps are not selective (i .e. , they trap any animal which steps into them) . In fact, there is substantial reason to believe that trappers are more likely to catch healthy animals (because they are mobile and active) than sick and diseased animals. Trappers often claim that steel traps are used to prevent starvation in wild animals. Such an assertion will not stand scrutiny. Trapping is done because animal pelts are valuable. A few years ago, bobcat pelts were selling for as much as $650. 00 each and bobcats were trapped in large numbers. All wild animals are potentially subject to starvation, but trappers seek to use steel traps to trap the Ms. Marshall June 12, 1987 Page Three valuable ones. No one has ever heard of trappers wanting to trap chickadees, cardinals, and many other "nongame" animals, even though all are subject to the rigors of winter and possible starvation. Furthermore, Mr. Wilson suggested that steel traps were used to lower population density of animals so that infectious diseases are not transmitted. This assertion, like the others, simply does not stand scrutiny. First, only major reduction in animal populations could reduce the spread of infectious disease and wildlife management agencies do not attempt to reduce wildlife populations to that level. To understand why, one needs only to think of an analogy: random killing of wildlife as a means of reducing the transmission of infectious diseases, makes no more sense than randomly killing people to reduce the spread of infectious human disease. Morality and laws aside for the moment, a primary reason in both cases would be that the level of population reduction would need to be so great as to make such a program unworkable. Finally, one needs to realize once again that many animals get disease, but trappers only trap those animals whose pelts are valuable. This recognition points up salient and overriding conclusions: trapping with steel traps is not done to limit disease or disease transmission; it is not done to stop animal starvation or to maintain healthy populations. These are only convenient rationalizations for what is simply a commercial endeavor. Finally, opponents of your ordinance should recall that the the ordinance would not ban all trapping. It would simply protect people and pets by banning trapping with injurious and inhumane steel traps: that is Conibear and steel jaw leghold type traps. Alternative traps for necessary trapping are available, and your bill even provides for a waiver in cases where animals are causing depredations.

This trap is a barbaric device and we fully support its ban in Orange County. These traps cause much pain and suffering for animnals, including many household pets who are caught inadvertently.

Wh / le the noncommercial kennel status is not exhorted to te a revenue source in itself ( the County could very well not charge for this status. instead having a check only on the license form to indicate noncommercial status) , it would allow monitor / no of situations where dogs are kept under cruel and inhumane condi - tions. Unfortunate7y , we often get cruelty and neglect com- plaints against owners of larger numbers of doos , but we often- times cannot adequately investigate because unless the person who has seen the conditions ia willing to come to the magistrate's office , it is very difficult if not impossible for a cruelty investigatop to gain access to insoect the animals.

C. Dear Ms. Marshall, On behalf of our members in Orange County, I am writing to urge that the County Commissioners ban the leg-hold trap within the boundaries of their jurisdiction. Private businessmen involved in the fur trade do not need to use the trap. Since 1985, North Carolina General Statute 113-273, Sections 1,2,and 3 has permitted domestic propagation of fur-bearing animals. Wildlife management officers do not need to use the trap. Since the state of New Jersey banned use of the leg-hold trap state-wide in 1984, many proposals for replacement of it in such programs as beaver control, for instance, have emerged and are being successfully implemented. Relocation appears to be a viable alternative. Trapping is not a sport, since there is no contest. Meat is cheaper at the grocery store -- and almost any variety is now available. The rights of an individual under civil law do not extend to the violation of others' rights. Leg-hold traps are a proven danger to hikers, children, and pets. Without economic, environmental, social, cultural, or political justification, the leg-hold trap is an anachronism the very existence of which is a painful reminder of the more cruel necessities of more primitive times. Despite trapping hobbyists' illusion that they are "re=living" the often romanticized American heritage of frontier days, it should be noted that historically, the more truly noble among our forbears forbore to kill except in necessity. Daniel Boone never wore a coonskin cap. Orange County, as home of the University of North Carolina, stands as a symbol of moral and intellectual leadership in the state. Prohibition of any cruel and unnecessary instrument of destruction within its borders is reflective of that image. The leg-hold trap is such an instrument. We therefore respectfully request that the County Commissioners take action to ban sale or use of the leg-hold trap in Orange County. Thank you. Sincerely, Nye • Nancy B.

Sincerely, Susan Strobel Member, APS of Orange County Rt. 4, Box 1518 Hillsborough, N. C. 27278 May 23, 1987 Orange County Board of Commissioners Hillsborough, N. C. 27278 Dear County Commissioner: I'm writing you this letter in opposition to Section XII of the Proposed Animal Control Ordinance. I understnad from reading this section that this Ordinance would prohibit the use of steel jaw traps in Orange County, except by use of a special depridation permit. The problem with tnis is that the farmer or other party applying for a permit has already let the wild animal , Predator or Rodent, overpopulate before such party applies. This leads to great financial loss in grain crops, damage to farm ponds, damage to timber flooding of pastures, etc. Another great problem with overpopulations is the increased chance of disease carried by wild animals ; the most deadly of which is Rabies, which will kill domestic animals, dogs, cats, livestock, as well as humans. Orange County and especially the farmers need the annual season for trapping as set and regulated by our Wildlife Commission. We need this annual season for trapping so that these animals will not overpopulate and cause more and more problems listed above. We have eighteen Wildlife Biologists employed by North Carolina Wildlife who do studies and make biologically sound reports to the Commission. From these reports and recommendations the Wildlife Commission sets regulations as to season limits so we will have healthy populations, hopefully eliminating depridation and disease. The Commission also sets firm and adequate regulations regarding humanemethods of trapping. I personally trap on an annual basis for several farmers and cattlemen in northern Orange County, and I have a good working relationship with all the people for whom I trap. Please beware of Emotional anti-trapping proposals based on sympathy with no biological facts to substantiate their proposal. It is very untrue that competent trappers are inhumaneand catbh large numbers of non-target animals. In fact, it is to the contrary. I ask you to use Section XXIII - Severability and sever Section XII from this Ordinance and leave trapping regulations in the hand of the North Carolina Wildlife Commission where it belongs.

Margaret Lane Hillsborough , North Carolina Dear Ms. Marshall : I would like to commend the Orange County Commissioners for approaching the problem of animal control by appointing a Task Force . The recommendations from this group will give Orange County a means of dealino with problems that are plaguing most areas of the North Carolina. These are problems that require hard decisions and commitment to accomplish the goal of effective animal control . The North Carolina Humane Federation especially urges Orange County to pass the ban on steel jaw traps. These inhumane de- vices are illegal in over 60 countries, and the_ issue is being considered county-by-county and state-by-state in the United States. Along with the inhumanity toward the animals being sought by trappers, nontarget animals are also victimized.

BOYNTON Washington Count LOCAL ORDINANCES THAT BAN TRAPPING: In the recent past I have received several telephone calls asking me whether or not laws passed by local govern- mental entities banning the leghold trap are legal and not in conflict with State law or policy.The real question is whether or not a local governmental entity can pass laws on the management and control of wildlife when that is a function of the State. In two States, this issue has been tested and the local ordinance failed.In Baltimore City County a law was passed prohibiting the use of the leghold trap. The Maryland Trappers Association brought action con- testing the law on the ground that any management-of wildlife was a.function of the State legislature. The Court upheld that position. A similar case was brought by the Connecticut Trappers Association challeng- ing the township which had prohibited the use of the leghold trap. Again, the Court upheld the position that such control of wildlife was a management responsibility of - the State unless(?)so delegated by the State to local governmental entities. Consequently, whether or not a local or- dinance is in conflict with the State will de- pend upon the jurisdiction involved. Some States have, in fact, delegated certain wildlife management authority to govern- mental entities and they are permitted to take such action. Other States, of course, have not. Consequently, each State will have to be reviewed`individually: Copies of the Court decisions in Maryland and Con- . necticut are available. .- lime--- / f _y)---1WE CV.V-f, dr,z,,e E/:-/-7,-.6 - -77-- / /41-k"se ./- --21./ 7-Aizi), "1-/-1,7Z44---!is' Av-,6 ---_,k' cd.-- 73---.._ 30/WE -7C 1?/e4-- G /72.., E .

Margaret Lane - - - Hillsborough, NC 27278 Dear Ms. Marshall : We are writing to support the proposed ban on the steel-jawed leghold trap. As animal lovers, we do not believe that this is a. humane way to hunt. If people must hunt, at least they should give the animals a fair chance. Also, many domestic pets are caught by these traps and left to die a very painful , excruciating death or left mutilated if caught in time to be saved. Further, we enjoy hiking and backpacking through our countryside, and fear the chance that we could be caught in one of these traps if not carefully plotting each step. Needless to say, this tends to take some of the pleasure out of a trek through the woods. There are many factors to consider against the leg hold trap, and we urge you to ban this inhumane device. Thank you for the opportunity to express our views on this important issue. Sincerely, y� 6V‘71-CIL Rachel E. Castle �ua.QJOC � j Russell L.

I think these traps should be banned. These traps cause much pain and suffering for animals. Many of these animals getting caught in these traps are family pets. These traps are dangerous to small children also. These traps are cruel and dangerous to everyone. PLEASE STOP THE SUFFERING OF ANIMALS! Sincerely, Randy & Kathy Talbot Rt. 5 Box 110-109 Ridgewood Mobile Home Park Chapel Hill , NC 27514 May 20, 1987 Shirley Marshall , Chair Orange County Commissioners 106 E. Margaret Lane Hillsborough, NC 27278 Dear Ms. Marshall : Through my support of such national environmental organizations such as Defenders of Wildlife, National Wildlife Association and the like, 1 naively thought the Steel-Jaw Leghold Trap was a Western problem which all Americans should be concerned about. Now I am_: shocked to learn that this cowardly, brutal and despicable method of "entrapment" is used in Orange County, North Carolina. I honestly thought the leghold trap was banned years ago in eastern states. You don' t need to be reminded of the agonizing death caused by such traps, as you know there is no quick "painless" death to the animal or bird caught thusly. To think that a wandering child could stumble into such horror is of a magnitude beyond the thinking of a civilized person. That, fortunately, has not happened in Orange County, but many domestic pets in this county have been caught in the leghold trap and have suffered needlessly--often losing a limb. I support the ban on Steel-Jaw Leghold Traps in Orange County, indeed I would like to see their ban throughout North Carolina. I urge you and your fellow commissioners to approve that section of the ordinance banning the use of leghold traps in Orange County. I would also urge the County Commissioners to ban their sale in Orange County and to encourage an educational program among hunters and trappers and in the school systems as to the barbarism of this method of entrapment. Such educa- tional programs in the form of literature, video tapes, : photos are available from many national wildlife organizations. S. cerely yours, / (Mrs. ) Carroll C. Carrozz/I 102 Cherokee Circle Chapel Hill, NC 27514 May 20, 1987 TO: ORANGE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS I was appalled to read that the steel jaw legtrap for hunting animals has not yet been outlawed. For some reason (wishful thinking, I suppose) I believed it had been outlawed several years ago. I have a friend whose dog lost its leg in such a trap--it dragged the trap home with it, and needless to say, the leg was not much use after that experience. I walk and jog alone in the country; I would not dare do so in many places if I did not have my dogs with me. I take them into areas away from roads to protect them from cars; I do not wish them exposed to the dangers of being trapped in leghold traps. These traps are inhumane by any standards. I urge the Commissioners to do whatever is possible to outlaw them in Orange County, both their sale and use. 4L- CeR),} 1 Asta C.

The county is just too populous now for its laws to be supportive of trappers rather than the thousands of pet owners whose dogs (or other animals) can end up caught in steel-jaw traps and suffer tremendously. The trappers have just got to accept the fact that times have changed for our area and different values now lead the board of commissioners. Even though we are Republicans, Y know you will seri- ously consider our views and our request that all the com- missioners vote to enact the ban of the steel-jaw trap. Sincerely, William A. Reppy, Jr. Attorney at Law and Professor of Law WAR: jma r . June 5, 1987 Dear County Commissioner Marshall: We have been residing in Orange County for the past 20 years. Ten of them were spent off 86 near Black- wood Station and ten in Chapel Hill. We are very concerned about the plight of humans and animals due to overpopulation of both groups. The steel jaw leg hold trap mains and kills thousands of animals per year. It is only a matter of time be- fore a child get caught in one of these traps, hurting himself dreadfully and perhaps for life, which could ultimately result in a suit against the County and the burning question "Why hasn't anything been done about this before?" Non trappers, Mr. and Ms average Orange County citizen, consider this trap the equivalentcf a medieval torture device. We have no lobby to help us but you represent all of us and we know that you will consider our point of view. A strong argument against the trap is that an alterna- tive trap is available enabling those animals not de- sired for their fur to be released intact. We urge you to pass in toto the proposed Orange County Animal Control Ordinance and not to delete the steel jaw leg hold trap section. Duplin County has banned this device.

Many of these animals suffer horrible agonizing death, others are discarded as they are not the ones being trapped for . This is not a matter of politics but of morality, North Carolina stands as the beacon in the southeast regarding animal cruelty . The ONLY state in the southeast where dog and cock fighting still remain a misdemeanor not a felony, due to the lack of interest of some legislators and the lobbying of some unsavory groups . Let us start in Orange County having more compassionate , humane and responsible treatment of our animals as otherwise we will add another mark in our already bad reputation regarding the respect for other living creatures . Sincerely, • 1"J June 8, 1987 Shirley Marshall , Chair Orange Co. Board of Commissioners 106 E. Margaret Ln. Hillsborough, NC 27278 Dear Chair Marshall : 65j) � w() I write to reiterate my support of the ban in Orange County of the steel jaw leghold trap. If those members of our county heretofore using the leghold trap could use help in changing long held habits, please work to facilitate the use of alternative forms of traps and instruction in their humane use. An individual at the May 26th hearing testified that the Animal Protection Society is willing to assist anyone wanting to use the Have-A-Heart Trap. Let us encourage cooperation among the interested parties. The use of the steel jaw leghold trap is one tradition too barbaric to condone. It is my impression that the terms of the proposed ordinance do not strongly enough prohibit use of this device. I would like to add that other portions of the proposed Animal Control Ordinance appear to be sound; in particular, the imposition of higher licensing fees for un-neutered and unspayed dogs and cats in Orange County is good policy. Thank you for your serious consideration of the proposed Animal Control Ordinance for Orange County and for your attentiveness to all speakers during the hearing on May 26th. S' rely, Marg P.

Dear Ms. Marshall, I am writing in support of the proposed ordinance to prohibit the use of the steel jaw trap in Orange County. This device is an.abanination to the humane treatment to animals no matter what the goal of its use. Moreover, the trap imposes a real safety hazard to domestic animals, pets, and humans. There are alternative humane and safe means of hunting and trapping. Please help Orange County set an example of mature conscience and responsibility by voting for this ordinance. i admire very much the states and counties that already have. Sincerely, 0. rJ Patricia T. Edkins TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: DAVID DAVIS, FROM THE MURPHY SCHOOL AREA, HAS A PETITION WITH APPROXIMATELY SIX HUNDRED NAMES AND THERE IS A PETITION IN THE CALDWELL AREA.

WE WOULD LIKE FOR THIS HEARING TO BE IN HILLSBOROUGH. I BELIEVE YOU NEED MORE ADVERTISEMENT AS TO THE MATTER OF THE DOG ORDINANCE. I BELIEVE THIS MATTER IS BEING INTRODUCED TO NORHTERN ORANGE IN AN UNTIMELY MANNER. IT IS HAY SEASON IN THE COUNTRY AND TOBACCO FARMERS ARE BUSY IN THE FIELDS PREPARING FOR THIS YEARS CROPS. IF A SURVEY IS TAKEN, I BELIEVE YOU WILL FIND THERE ARE MORE DOGS IN NORTHERN ORANGE THAN IN SOUTHERN ORANGE. THE MAJORITY OF OUR FARMERS PROBABLY HAVE MORE THAN TEN DOGS. WHERE I COME FROM THE PEOPLE HUNT RABBIT, COON, BIRD AND DEER. THEREFORE, THEY ARE SUBJECT TO HAVE MORE DOGS. AND AT THIS TIME IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO FIGHT THIS PROPOSED ORDINANCE IN CHAPEL HILL AND IN JUNE.

C . 27514 Dear Shirley, As a member of the Board of Directors for the Orange County Animal Protection Society, I would like to urge you to support the ban of leghold traps in Orange County. This is one of the recommendations being put forth by the "Animal Control Task Force" appointed by the Commissioners back in March. I have heard horror stories about what can happen to family pets, and other unsuspecting animals that get caught in these traps. To tell you the truth, I was surprised to learn that they were still in use here in. Orange County. Our research tells us that of the 22 million animals trapped in the United States each year, more than 5 million are "Yiontarget" animals, or animals that were not meant to be trapped. This, to me, seems a terrible way for any animal to suffer, and there must be more humane ways for trappers to go about their business . This is an excellent opportunity to ban the steel-jawed leghold trap forever in Orange County, and I hope you will consider my letter, and the signatures of all the citizens on the attached petitions as evidence of the support behind this idea. I will see you at the Public Hearing on Tuesday, May 26, 1987. Thank you. Ilfr� , =lards, as always, jr Ron Stutts Village Broadcasting Company, Inc. • P.O.
