Canned hunting is the killing of a fenced-in animal who has no chance of escape, for the sole purpose of obtaining a trophy. That's right: animals -- often tame, exotic mammals -- are put into an enclosure for rich individuals to " hunt. " It is as horrible as you can imagine. <http://hsus.ga4.org/ct/V11M7_S1kaKY/> Learn more about this outrageous " sport " here. In the CSI episode, which airs Thursday, February 10, on CBS (check your local listings for exact times), characters investigate the killing of a Kodiak bear found in the Nevada woods. Evidence leads them to discover that the bear was killed during an illegal canned hunt. This is critical public exposure for an animal protection issue that deserves serious attention -- and you can help to make an even bigger impact. 1. <http://hsus.ga4.org/campaign/stopcannedhunts/dnndew2oj8jwmi?source=GABA EL> Take action to stop canned hunts now.
