[post_page_title]A growing issue[/post_page_title]
Even though dogfighting declined in the 1990s, it has sprung back in recent years as the internet has made it that much easier to organize and follow this bloody sport.
It’s a felony in all 50 states, but some data point to the involvement of tens of thousands of people nationwide. The risk is sizeable, but greed tends to win out, as major dogfighting raids have turned up more than half a million dollars, and it’s not unusual for $20,000-$30,000 to change hands during a single fight.
