No government will allow this game to be played. But in many places such games are conducted. If we look at the game of wrestling, there is a scripted game. But still sometimes I get news of some accidents and there is no script written in the game of these animals. Both animals are likely to be harmed in a fight. That's why even though this game is popular, it is not supported by the government. Others consider it a form of animal abuse. But behind the scenes this game is still quite popular. But I have no idea whether this game is run on any casino platform or not.
There are still places that the government cannot reach because it is difficult for the government to trace the location. That's because the players don't spread the location of the place to many people or many places so that only certain people who are familiar with cockfighting will know about it. They may be spectators who have often seen cockfights and enjoy the fights, apart from the regular players who continue to gamble.
That is why, in some countries, this cockfighting game is still quite popular even though only a few people know its location. But that's enough for us to know that this cockfight is still gambling and is growing rapidly. But we don't know whether this cockfighting fight is available in offline or online casinos.
You're right it all depends on the geographical location and the government rules and regulations for pets or animals. Besides, in some states in the US, there are rules for the motorist to stop for some certain animal to cross the road while in some states there's nothing like that. The same thing goes for cock fighting which there's no law discouraging it in some countries.
Well , even without rules to stop when animals are crossing the road , a driver with common sense will still stop and wait for the animal to cross he or she goes on driving , like here in Nigeria, there is no such law mandating drivers to stop for animals crossing, but we still stop or slow down when ever an animal is seen crossing the road, or if you are so much in a hurry and there is a space, you can try to dodge the animal, and this is because, if you decide to hit animal because there is no law against that..
First is that, the animal will be severely injured or be die, in either of this case , if the owner of that animal is around, and you are caught , you will have to pay heavily for the animal.
Secondly is that, your vehicle will sustain some damage which will also cost you money to repair , and this is if the accident do not turn fetal which may also claim your life , so this is it for laws on animals crossing the road .
Back to the main topic of discussion..cockfight is not common, like you said , it's a regional game, there is no way such games will ever enter global online gambling casinos, except we arrive at a stage where cockfight becomes a global thing.
