Much has been publicized about the welfare of rodeo animals. Both the CPRA and PRCA websites have information about animal welfare, and the "Animal Welfare" page on the CPRA site states that SPCA inspectors are welcome at all CPRA rodeos. The BC SPCA website (www.spca.bc.ca) has a section on performing animals, but not specifically on rodeo animals--contact your local SPCA for info [the Vancouver Regional Branch phone number is (604) 879-7721]. The Canadian Federation of Humane Societies' website (www.cfhs.ca) also has a page about entertainment animals, though not specifically rodeo animals. Their head office number is (613) 224-8072; toll-free in Canada is (888) 678-CFHS (2347); and e-mail is info@cfhs.ca. The Vancouver Humane Society office number is (604) 266-9744.
