Air Canada has joined the list of airlines banning the shipment of hunting trophies.
In a statement to CHCH News the airline says:
“Air Canada will refuse to carry any shipment of lion, leopard, elephant, rhinoceros and water buffalo trophies worldwide as freight. It should be noted that historically the shipment of such trophies has been extremely rare as Air Canada does not operate flights to Africa.”
Delta Airlines, American Airlines and United Airlines also revealed similar policy changes this morning.
Several airlines began announcing the bans last week, in the wake of Cecil the lion’s controversial death.
