Illegal cockfighting is going on here
The Irish Council Against Blood Sports is calling on members of the public to report any information about cockfighting activities to the gardaí.
Similar to other blood sports like foxhunting, hare coursing and carted deerhunting (all of which are still legal here), the typical cockfight involves horrendous animal cruelty. Two cocks are thrown into an enclosed pit and encouraged to rip each other apart until one succumbs and dies.
