Animal welfare groups have increased the reward for information that leads to a conviction in a Long Island dog torture case.

A bicyclist found four badly decomposed pit bulls a week ago in the woods in Manorville. Suffolk County SPCA official Roy Gross says the animals were mutilated, and one appeared to have a broken neck.

The Suffolk SPCA and the Humane Society of the U.S. are now offering a $5,000 reward.

Anyone with information is asked to call 631-382-7722. Calls will be kept confidential.

Pit bulls were reported in 2007 as the victims of 25 percent of all dog abuse cases, according to the Humane Society of the United States.
