Dead rabbits spark live baiting fears

BY IAN CROUCH

Fresh allegations of live baiting have surfaced in the Hunter's Greyhound racing industry after three dead rabbits were found on a property in Cessnock.

The rabbits were found near a dog training area and authorities have suspended a man over the incident.

Greyhound Racing NSW says it's working with the RSPCA to determine if any criminal charges should be laid for animal cruelty.
