Dogs used as shark bait

By IAN HEPBURN

STRAY dogs are being skewered on hooks and dragged behind boats as live shark bait, The Sun can shockingly reveal.

The cruel practice takes place on French-controlled Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean, where Prince William spent two holidays.

A six-month-old labrador pup was recently found ALIVE with a huge double hook through its snout - like the dog above - and another through a leg.

The pup was found in a coastal creek and is thought to have somehow freed itself from a fishing line.

But other dogs and kittens have been chomped up and swallowed by sharks.

The RSPCA plans to petition the French government, demanding an end to the hideous torture.

To sign the petition, here is the link:

Gothampc posted this last night too - isn't it awful? I hope this is an urban legend though.
Last night's thread - see bottom Snopes link

Sorry...did not see the former thread.

I linked the RSPCA's website, so unfortunately, I don't think it is a hoax.

The people involved should have hooks put through them and hanged out for bait!

No problem, Jimmcf - I was hoping someone would bump it or bring up the topic this morning anyway.

I agree, VoiceAnth.

Even if only ONE person does it, I want to see them punished...
