New Zealand cancels controversial children's cat-killing competition.
A cat-killing competition for children in New Zealand has been canceled after facing backlash from animal rights activists. The competition, organized by the Sporting Hunters Outdoor Trust, was aimed at encouraging children to hunt and kill feral cats. However, the event was criticized for promoting animal cruelty and sending the wrong message to children. The trust has since apologized and canceled the event.
