COURSING MEETINGS.
OPPOSITION BY S.P.C.A. Per Press Association. DUNEDIN, Sept. 17. Following; legal advice that a prosecution would have little chance of success, the Otago Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals to-day decided to go no further with its proposal to institute Court action against those responsible for a coursing meeting at Forbury Park on June 22, when it was stated that 15 hares were killed out of 15 courses. It was resolved, however, not to let the matter rest, but to circularise all sister societies in New Zealand, asking them to assist in bringing pressure on the Government to prohibit live-hare coursing in enclosed areas.
