The West Parry Sound O.P.P. has concluded an investigation into an incident involving the death of a dog on the Rose Point Trail last Friday.
Friday afternoon around 4:30, members from the West Parry Sound Ontario Provincial Police Detachment responded to a complaint of a dog being caught in a trap adjacent to the Rose Point Trail in Seguin Township.
The complainant’s dog had died as a result of being caught in the trap.
The investigation found that the dog was caught in a Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act compliant body gripping trap and that the trap was located along a marked trap line, on private property.
Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry were advised and consulted.
No charges have been laid and the trapper has voluntarily removed all of the ground trap sets adjacent to the trail.
