State to Breed Bloodhounds in Mississippi to Recapture Escaped Convicts
Mississippi authorities push for better bloodhounds after failed attempts to pursue escaped prisoners. A new state pack led by Robin Hood from Kentucky will train at Rankin County and improve breeds at state farms. The dog is praised for tracing twelve hour and twenty four hour old trails with no notable errors. The program aims to cut guard needs and save money by using hounds to recapture fugitives on state farms.
