This is incredibly sad and awful...

I know this isn't something related to Axims, but I have seen several posts on this site by animal lovers. Being that it is such an international forum, maybe we can get some people that speak french much more fluently than I to write some letters of outrage.
This may be old new for many, but I just saw an article about this on MSNBC. So I went right to the source: **Warning: Very Graphic Photos of Puppies being abuse**
http://www.seashepherd.org/news/media_050929_1.html

I had no idea that people use dogs and cats as live bait to attract sharks!! It is sickening!

This is probably a very politically incorrect query, but were they catching many sharks this way ??????

Go to snopes.com.

It's a fake story with a fake photo--meaning the photo isn't from fishing, it was just an accident with a new caption.

We humans have a contract with certain other species which have helped us throughout the years. Dogs and cats are foremost among them, being associated with us for thousands of years. Dogs helped early hunters hunt. Cats exterminated the rodents and other pests that plagued grain stores, enabling us to farm productively. We owe our society today in part to their participation. So, I think we owe them humane treatment, it's part of our contract with them.

I figured it was fake but I think the person that faked it is a little weird.Anyone who can come up with stuff like that and fake it for a joke may need to visit the sharks also.

No, it's a real photo. Some dog just got very unlucky. The fake part is the caption that said they were using the dog as shark bait.

As a registered breeder of UKC dogs this by far is the most disgustinng thing I have ever seen in my life. Look at that puppy's face, how could you do anything that would harm something that innocent. That's why I prefer dogs to people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
