Mike Hedges, a politician with Welsh Labour, has proposed that individuals aspiring to own rabbits should undergo mandatory training. Hedges raised the issue during first minister's questions, directing his inquiry to Rhun ap Iorwerth regarding animal welfare.
The proposal suggests that such training would aim to improve the understanding of rabbit care and welfare among owners. While the specific content or duration of the proposed training was not detailed, the underlying intent appears to be promoting responsible pet ownership and ensuring better outcomes for rabbits.
