GREYHOUND RACING
PROTEST
WHEN: Saturday, February 23, 12:00 - 2:00
p.m.
WHERE: Orange Park Racetrack
455 Park Street, Orange Park (park across street from facility)
WHY: The protest is about
the inhumane treatment of greyhounds. Greyhounds are confined in small
cages barely large enough for them to stand up or turn around. Hundreds of
dogs are kept in warehouse-style kennels at each track. Also, greyhounds
suffer serious injuries, are killed when they are no longer profitable, trained
using live animals and are, many times injected with steroids and/or cocaine.
