Stop Cruelty Taking Place on the Water

Convince the government to capture and imprison those using dogs and cats as shark bait. STRAY dogs are being skewered on hooks and dragged behind boats as live shark bait. The cruel practice takes place on French-controlled Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean. A six-month-old labrador pup was recently found ALIVE with a huge double hook through its snout, 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.

I am writing you this letter to convince you to take the time to think of all the cats and dogs being used as shark bait in the Indian Ocean. Think of your pets at home and try to imagine them being stuck with hooks and thrown into the ocean to be eaten and killed in order for people to capture sharks. It is a cruel and unusual method and we should do everything in our power to find the men who do this and put a stop to it immediately. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter.

The act of using dogs as bait is vile and despicable - harsh jail terms should be imposed.

Madame, Monsieur, Je suis horrifiée d'apprendre que l'on utilise des chiens vivants comme appât pour les requins. C'est vraiment inhumain et, franchement, je n'aurais jamais imaginé que des pratiques pareilles aient lieu dans un pays civilisé comme la France. Je vous prie donc de bien vouloir intervenir pour mettre fin à ces pratiques déshonorables, qui détériorent l'image de la France dans le monde. En espérant une votre compréhension, je vous prie, Madame, Monsieur, d'agréer l'expression de mes sentiments distingués. Teresa M. Wlosowicz

Here in the states animal abuse is a felony offense punishable by time in prison. I feel that these people should get the same punishment. Anyone who abuses a defenseless animal should be thrown in jail.
