$5,000.00 Reward to Report Cockfighting

For months now, we've heard that federal agents from Atlanta were to swoop into northwest Alabama and make arrests for cockfighting. So far, it just hasn't happened.

Now the the Animal Wellness Foundation (AWF) and Animal Wellness Action (AWA) have announced that they are offering a $5,000 reward for information resulting in the successful prosecution of any individual(s) for violating the federal law (7 U.S.C. § 2156) against animal fighting. That's a lot of money to do the right thing.

What to do:

Anyone with information about illegal cockfighting activities can send information to animalcrueltytips@animalwellnessaction.org. Residents can also contact the appropriate U.S. attorneys, the state attorney general, or county sheriffs or district attorneys.

Foghorn thanks you and we thank you!
