16. If the roosters were indeed raised for cock fighting, then they would have to be killed

As sad as that sounds, they are too violent to be kept near each other (they would literally kill each other) and I know humane agencies had no choice but to euthanize the fighters.

Now - I do not consider the asshole sheriff and Segal to be humane agents, but in some places that investigate animal cruelty, the ASPCA is with them. I am not sure if that happened here. On Animal Cops - Houston (I know, I know - more reality tv) it was heart breaking to watch- the humane agents had to kill the cockfighting roosters on site.

I am a volunteer humane agent and the thought of ever having to do that terrifies me.
