(Portland, OR) -- An animal protection group is working on a controversial petition to criminalize hunting, fishing and pest control in Oregon. The People for the Elimination of Animal Cruelty Exemptions, or PEACE, is pushing an initiative to ban injuring or killing animals, including for food, hunting, fishing, and pest control. It would also ban animal breeding. The initiative would apply to farming, ranching, hunting, fishing, trapping, pest control, research/teaching. The group is working to gather signatures.
