Dogfighting is a cruel and illegal activity where dogs are trained to fight each other for entertainment and gambling. These fights often take place in hidden locations, and the dogs are usually bred and conditioned to be aggressive. The fights can result in severe injuries or death for the animals involved. Participants in dogfighting often place bets on the outcome of the fights, making it a lucrative but unethical underground business. Law enforcement agencies work to combat this practice, as it is considered animal cruelty and is punishable by law in many regions.
