Sport - I think not!

Animal cruelty is widespread in the Queensland greyhound racing industry, says an Australian government report.

Its author, Alan MacSporran, QC, said the industry had failed systematically to assess and manage how animals were treated by trainers and racers.

The report follows the release of footage earlier this year of trainers using live animals to bait racing dogs.

Mr MacSporran said the fact trainers had not hidden the "barbaric" treatment of animals "tells its own story".

In April, 55 greyhound carcasses were found dumped in a wildflower reserve on the coast of Queensland .
