A MAN has been arrested by cops probing the use of live dogs as shark bait, it was revealed last night.
It comes a day after The Sun published horrific photos of a pup with a fishing hook through its snout.
Cops on French-controlled Reunion Island say a man will appear in court tomorrow. And last night the French Embassy vowed to target more rogue fishermen.
It said: “Such acts are illegal and intolerable.”
Animal welfare group Sea Shepherd will pay £680 to any cop who catches a fisherman baiting a dog.
