PART 2: Why we should ban greyhound racing

The Briefing

About this episode

A newly announced ban on greyhound racing in one Australian state has divided the public but left animal welfare advocates celebrating.

Last week the Tasmanian Premier told those in the sector, the sport would be phased out by 2029, leaving many in the industry furious and questioning his true motives.

In part two of this two-part deep dive, Tara Cassidy speaks with TasRacing CEO Andrew Jenkins and Coalition For The Protection of Greyhounds President Amy MacMahon about the controversial decision, and the future of greyhound racing in Australia.
