I received this e-mail from one of my animal rights lists. Pleasse sign the petition.
Please go to the following web site:
http://www.30millionsdamis.fr/fr/index.asp At the first category, there is a photo of a dog with a hook in his nose,
click on that, it will give you a petition in English
Subject: Dogs being used as shark bait!
PLEASE SIGN! DOGS BEING USED AS SHARK BAIT!!!
Dogs are being used as live bait on the French island and holiday
destination La Réunion! This is absolutely horrifying and not worthy of
anyone calling themselves human beings... Please sign this French
petition (click "sign petition" to get details in English). I don't know
if any international animal rights groups are aware of this and working
on the case, but please spread the word! Thanks!
After reading the message about the use of dogs as shark bait by
fisherman of Reunion Island - I have been doing some digging to see
what I could find out - and, to my horror, it is really happening.
Above, you will find the link to the island's tourism website.
I plan to encourage a letter writing campaign, and would like to
know if there is something more that can be done?
Seeing that photo of the dog with the HOOK through its nose at la
Fondation 30 Millions d`Amis website was repulsive!
Can anyone tell me what, if any, animal rights/welfare groups are
actively campaigning against this, other than the la Fondation 30
Millions d`Amis?
