Legislation to end the use of steel-jawed leghold traps on animals in the United States


Legislation to end the use of steel-jawed leghold traps on animals in the United States

Steel-jawed leghold traps are commonly used by commercial trappers in North America to “harvest” fur-bearing animals. Causing excruciating pain and suffering, the barbaric traps have been banned in 88 countries worldwide. The Inhumane Trapping Prevention Act will end the use of conventional steel-jawed leghold traps on animals in the United States.

H.R. 1691 - Sponsors: Representative Nita Lowey (D-NY), Representative Christopher Shays (R-CT)
