Dogs Being Used 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 Like to note that before i created this petiton i did some research on this because when i first read this news report i couldnt belive it so i did some research and i got some feedback from a local in the area who has confirmed that this has happened in that island.
http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/sharkbait.asp i also like to post this link it says that this is a hoax but yet it says right in here that it has happened and that some fishermen have used this practise to catch sharks
