RSPCA Australia is opposed to the use of animals in any form of fighting as animals are placed at significant risk of pain, injury, suffering or death for the purpose of entertainment. The term 'animal fights' refers to bull fighting, cock fighting, dog fighting or any sport where an animal is provoked to fight another animal or human.
