Adopt compassionate animal welfare practices

Letter of the day
Like many others, I was troubled by the recent footage showing the capture of three free-roaming dogs at Seletar West (‘Reasonable force’ used to catch dogs at Seletar West farm after 4 biting incidents: National Parks Board, Nov 17).
As someone who works in healthcare, I am familiar with how fear and stress affect behaviour. This is why the footage concerned me, and why I believe that how we treat vulnerable animals reflects the values we uphold as a society.
Dr Anna Wong of the Animal and Veterinary Service was reported as stating that the trapping “was achieved with reasonable force” and that the use of restraining poles was “in line with international practices”.
