HYDERABAD, India (AP) — A man was killed by a rooster with a blade tied to its leg during an illegal cockfight in southern India, police said, bringing focus on a practice that continues in some Indian states despite a decades-old ban.
The rooster, with a 3-inch knife tied to its leg, fluttered in panic and slashed its owner, 45-year-old Thangulla Satish, in his groin last week, police inspector B. Jeevan said Sunday.

The steel making factory I worked in used to get metal back from places we supplied with metal, when they scrapped parts due to imperfections. We once got an entire barrel of the spurs that they put on the legs of fighting cocks.
ReplyDeleteWe also got the molds that they use to dip in liquid latex to make mickey mouse balloons. A couple thousand pounds of mickey mouse heads.
And thousands of frames for those tiny revolvers, made by NAA.
I didn’t even bring a rooster to my last cockfight
