The greyhound trainer who narrowly escaped a lifetime ban on appeal is again the focus of animal advocates following the recent deaths of two greyhounds in his ‘care’.
Animal Liberal Tasmania alleges one of Anthony Bullock’s dogs died during a training session at Mowbray in late March, while another was allegedly killed by Bullock’s pet dog on his property in April.
Tasmanians who have been revolted by the cruelty and waste at the heart of greyhound racing deserve to know whether the Office of Racing Integrity is investigating these deaths.
Given his history as a notorious industry player who is apparently too big to fail, there is also the question of whether ORI is conducting regular inspections and monitoring of Bulllock’s operation since he successfully appealed his lifetime ban in January.
What is ORI doing to keep an eye on Anthony Bullock and the many dogs in his custody?
Anthony Bullock is a symptom of a sick and failing industry which has cruelty at its heart.
Tens of millions of taxpayer dollars prop up this industry, which continues to be cheered on by the Liberal and Labor parties despite recent statewide polling that confirms nearly three quarters of Tasmanians want this subsidised cruelty to end.
