Hi my name is Amelia Frank-Vitale and I am with Bullfrog
Films. I'm writing about a new film in which Animal Rights Online
readers might be interested. In this heartbreakingly frank look at the
animal trapping industry, the viewer gets to see trapping from the point
of view of the trapper as well as the animals.
Cull of the Wild: the Truth Behind Trapping explains and
demonstrates different types of traps and shows that the so-called
"humane" traps still sentence helpless animals to a gruesome and painful
death. The film also examines the new dangers of trapping that have
resulted from the suburbanization of farmland and forests. As trappers
lose the rural areas to continued development and the market for fur is
decreasing, they often turn to "pest control," killing "nuisance
animals" and simultaneously putting household pets and children in harms
way.
Cull of the Wild also looks at the difficult fight to
stop trapping, but gives the viewer reason to hope that this unnecessary
and heartless practice can be stopped through the work of grassroots
activism, education and public policy changes. If you have any interest
in purchasing this film, please let me no. If not, please spread the
word about its existence to like-minded individuals and organizations.
Perhaps you would put a link to the film on your web site. If you have
any questions or would like further information on the film, please
