No animal deserves the agony inflicted by steel jaw, leg hold traps. This dog’s story and extreme injuries reiterate the need to ban deadly traps, snares, and poisons from public lands.

From Argos, A Shelter Dog Rescue: Kekoa (Courageous One) suffered multiple compound fractures, massive bite wounds, and complete ligament tears. His wounds are deeply infected. In order to save Kekoa’s life we had no choice but to amputate his leg. Kekoa is in critical but stable condition. This sweet boy has suffered horrific injuries. He has bite wounds to both sides of his face, neck, stomach, and all extremities. He was attacked by wild animals while he helplessly lingered in the leg hold trap for days. Argos, and Bridges To Home have been working together to save Kekoa and raise funds for Kekoa’s medical care.
