Abstract
I argue that the terms lethal control, nonlethal control, and live trap are no longer suffi ciently precise for continued use in the scientifi c community. Their continued use confuses the public and allows animal protectionists to use them as cudgels in political discourse. Alternative terms are recommended to resolve the semantic and subsequent political issues surrounding the traditional terms.
