According to Clicanoo, a newspaper in Reunion, a French island located in the Indian Ocean, a six-month-old puppy was found last month with hooks implanted in its snout and one of its legs.

The French Society for the Protection of Animals (SPA) told the daily the dog was the victim of cruel fishermen who attract sharks by throwing puppies or kittens into the water, tied to fishing lines, and wait for the predators to swallow the thrashing animals.

"We don't see that every day, but it's not the first time, either," Marie-Annick Chantrel, the vice-president of the Reunion branch of the SPA, told Clicanoo. "We've already seen cats six or seven months old with hooks in them."

Whoa! I got banned for talking about how certain people in the Carribean beat goats with baseball bats. Why is this different?

SAVANNAH, Ga. -- A suspected burglar was charged with felony animal cruelty after police found a resident's missing dog burned to death in an oven that had been set to 400 degrees.

The dog's owner, Angela DeLettre, noticed an open back door, items missing and a kitchen sink overflowing with water when she came home Thursday. She found one of her dogs safe, but the other, a 1-year-old rat terrier, was missing.

Police later found the dead dog in the oven.

Police arrested Alexander Davis, 19, based on an anonymous tip. In addition to the cruelty charge, he was charged with burglarizing DeLettre's home and another home in the area. Another person was charged with theft by receiving stolen property.

"This is just sick. This is just very, very strange," said Melanie Higgins, a prosecutor who handles most of the county's animal abuse cases.

No bond was set for Davis and he remained in the Chatham County Jail. A court hearing was scheduled Thursday, and attempts to learn if he had an attorney were not successful.

DeLettre, a high school teacher, said she did not know the suspects or why anyone would want to harm her.

"To rob someone is one thing," she said, "but why hurt such a little animal?"

Every group, be it based on nationality, religion, race or creed, has its bad apples. Anyway, I feel nauseous :(

I love cats, they are my favorite animal!
Back in Colombia I had a few kittens running around my small store and a fisherman offered me money for the kittens so that he could use them to catch sharks.
I kicked him out of the store with a 38 caliber!
