Pacelle said the illegal events often come with other crimes. "Illegal gambling, narcotics trafficking and the like, this is always the case that cockfighting is co-mingled with other criminal behavior," Pacelle said.
Currently, there is no limit on the number of male chickens that can be kept on rural properties with more than 10,000 square feet.
Regulations would also ban tethering the birds and require keeping them in secure housing with appropriate space. "This is the way to really crack down on this. If animal services takes the matter seriously, they have to enforce the law," Pacelle said.
