“Proposed Changes to Animal Protection Law Could Bring Back Cockfights in José María Morelos”

Cockfighting club leaders in José María Morelos are proposing changes to the Animal Protection Law. They hope to reintroduce cockfights during traditional festivals. Despite the current law's prohibition of these fights, the supporters maintain that they are integral to local culture and provide economic advantages to the community. A discussion with local deputies is anticipated to review and potentially amend this law.
