Cockfight Killing: Jose Luis Ochoa Killed By Armed Bird
02/ 7/11 10:55 PM AP
DELANO, Calif. — A California man attending a cockfight has died after being stabbed in the leg by a bird that had a knife attached to its own limb.
The Kern County coroner says 35-year-old Jose Luis Ochoa was declared dead at a hospital about two hours after he suffered the injury in neighboring Tulare County on Jan. 30.
An autopsy concluded Ochoa died of an accidental "sharp force injury" to his right calf.
Sheriff's spokesman Ray Pruitt says it's unclear if a delay in seeking medical attention contributed to Ochoa's death. Tulare officials are investigating, and no arrests were made at the cockfight.
Cockfighting is a sport, illegal in the United States, in which specially bred roosters are put into a ring and encouraged to fight until one is incapacitated or killed.

Please contact your officials, in whatever country you live, to see to it that cockfighting (a blood sport) is forever banned. And if it's already banned (as it is in the USA), please help authorities by keeping an eye and an ear out for such illegal events.

I've written a novel all about giant battle cocks killing cock fighters and those who are cruel to animals! It's called 'Battle Cocks' by Ross Brodie.
