Dogs used as shark bait

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.

TELL us what you think of the hideous torture by emailing us at

talkback .
