All I have to go on is facebook from Japan Times.

You folks must know more than I do.
A boost for the sport certainly.

Just need to keep the animals . No PC changeing thrm for "shapes".

Do I get to tryout........ just for fun!

This is some kind of joke.
With Japan's aversion to guns this is not going to happen in Japan.
Silhouette targets are in the shapes of animals for many reasons.
It is technically more difficult to shoot a animal shaped target than a geometric shaped target.
Shoot this fine sport as it was meant to be shot.
Do not compromise on any aspect of this sport.

I am in the process now of figuring out whom to petition to make certain they are real Animal Targets.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hoax and I am the fool.

"How is Day of the Holy Innocents celebrated?
In Spain, December 28th is a day of practical jokes, similar to what we in the USA celebrate on April Fool's Day. Dia de los Santos Inocentes – Day of the Holy Innocents is a religious holiday named in honor of the young children who were slaughtered by order of King Herod around the time of Jesus' birth.Oct 10, 2018"

No harm done.
The pc Olympic committee will never add a sport that uses anything resembling a firearm but only delete the few remaining shooting events.
Look at the milk toast events they have added in the last few years.

What you don't want me to try out for Bikini Volleyball?
