Would the BC SPCA condone shooting abandoned dogs or cats if the Wildlife Act said once they were feral they fell under the Wildlife Act? The SPCA itself has promoted rabbits as pets in the same way it has cats and dogs.

Is the $20 million+ a year BC SPCA stepping up to the plate and taking in many of the 300 rabbits rescued by the rabbit rescuers who struggle to pay the bills to sterilize their rabbits and maintain sanctuaries for them? Or is it hiding behind the BC Wildlife Act which irrationally says abandoned pet rabbits are wildlife, not feral pets. The Act does not say other abandoned feral pets, like dogs and cats, are wildlife. To their great credit the inconsistency in the Act is ignored by rabbit rescuers, who practice real animal welfare. For ten years the SPCA has been saying that it condones the shooting of feral pet rabbits, so this issue isn't new to it.
