Cockfights Peru

Outlawed in most of the western world, cockfights remain a thriving bloodsport in many places. In the Amazonian city of Iquitos, we venture into the world of the fighting rooster. We check out the rules, the training of the birds, the betting on the matches and other aspects of Peruvian cockfighting culture.

Philippine cockfighting is far better than this...

I've seen cock fights in Puerto Rico before all the human society out crys were heard. It's an exciting experience with all of the crowds, betting, and yelling. It does get quite bloody and in hind sight I realize it was probably not very humane. the owners to care for their roosters and our confident that they will win. I wouldn't put cock fights in the league with dog fighting and it was quite the experience.
