The controversial sport of greyhound racing could be ending, after animal rights groups and loss of profits shake the industry.

“Ever since birth these greyhounds have been cared for by people, a lot of people don’t get to see that,” said Shane Bolender, racing director at Southland Gaming and Racing, which is one of only 22 greyhound racing tracks left in the country.

            In 2001, the number of greyhound racing tracks was around 50. Now that number has decreased by almost 50%, in little over a decade.

            The decrease is due in part to the business’s loss of revenue and popularity. The work of Animal rights groups in the past decade also contributed to the reduction.
