Where does it end?

CNN reports that a canary fighting ring was busted in Connecticut:

Really? People are breeding canaries to fight to the death now... I guess I'm at a loss at this point. If people need to gamble on the outcome of a fight, can't we all just agree to limit it to boxing or mixed martial arts or something else where the participants actually give their consent to being pummeled? If you need some direct involvement, play a video game or learn how to build one of those battlebots.
