Listen "Greyhound racing"
Episode Synopsis
Since 2020, a total of 857 dogs have been killed on the racetrack, it's an alarming statistic. In this episode of Great and Small Talk, we confront the uncomfortable realities behind Australia’s greyhound racing industry. An industry which, despite repeated inquiries, high injury rates, declining participation, and persistent welfare failures, continues to operate thanks to government support. Join our host Brian Daly as he speaks to Dr Di Evans, RSPCA Australia, and Debbie King, RSPCA WA about this highly charged topic, as they break down industry myths, poor welfare practices and what needs to change to protect Australia's greyhounds.
