Animal racing

[Pamadar]

I've never been a fan of this types of gambling games. Using animals to compete with another species or the same one.
I know horse racing but even before it didn't give me the fun to see a horse being lashed by the racer just to speed it up. But perhaps this could be normal in rural places where people don't use internet or do not have the knowledge about card games. I may agree with what they will do but if it someone who has knowledge about other gambling games and has access to it, why choose animal races or fights?
A good options is near you so just use that kind of method to gamble yourself away.

Horse racing and cockfighting are those that are very common to most third world countries.

They love betting, especially those who are residing in rural areas. Some, if not most, are depending on their livelihood
with this kind of gambling.

Not fan of Cockfighting but with horse riding sometimes I also bet with it and enjoy even I don't win yet.

As the festivities get high in spirit a lot of players are now taking part in different games in my neighborhood I saw some individuals playing different games with animals from horse to bull and even cow racing all over the street and I stop to wonder if this kind of game healthy for those animals some people think that using animals for such games is being harsh on the animal well being.

if we look at it on a moral ground, then yes it is. but I don't mind seeing animals being used for racing, as long as they are well taken care of. what I am not ok with is animals being abused to train them or being used for underground animal fighting. I've seen illegal dog fights on the internet before and it is horrifying.

I never heard of cow racing before, sounds a bit crazy for my taste.  

It is in my country, Indonesia. Even held every tradition festival in a certain area every year. Including as a medium of conventional betting that is carried out openly, and is almost excluded from legal action due to the strong reason of their tradition.
I've seen it live several times. If I can judge it, it's the most excruciating race that basically forces non-species animals to run as fast as possible.

I'm not sure if it was around this time but I saw before this thread another where someone was playing or betting on spider fights or something like that, it was clandestine ... usually these things organized (approved) or they are not in a certain way Counterproductive to the issue of gambling because the associated prejudice that bets on whatever and on the other hand the issue of animals, we should not support this type of thing even if it is only for fun.

I've heard about these crazy races. If I'm not mistaken, this event is held in the rice fields after the harvest, which resemble mud puddles at this point. I sincerely do not understand why it is not done on a level surface, although it is a kind of demonstration of bulls' endurance.

As long as there is no animal cruelty against them and they are treating them right then I do not see the problem with some races being held, as historically events of this type have existed for a very long time and people love to gamble in those events, however if some of those competitions eventually evolved to dog fights or something like that then I would have a problem with that, as it is simply wrong to force animals to fight for no reason at all.

that's crazy
as cows aren't really the biggest racers
are these cows raised for that or just some kind of independent game where they use cows from farms that would use the cows for other things like milk or meat?

creativity is really limitless, if we have cow races we could have gambling with any kind of animals

First time on hearing it off also about cows race but if it does exist then so be it and as you said that creativity is limitless which means that any kind of things or dealings could really be possible as long it would be applicable
and can be done then human beings do normally find or seek of ways speaking of entertainment and these conditions or situations are very common act for them to commit out.
Some might have impressions it is  already a form of abuse or some sort but as long it doesnt involved killings or something like that then i dont see any problems.

Cow racing is quiet popular also in my place though it only happens during festive in my place I can say that its fine because those animals are being taking care of so the owners will win again on the next competition. People are using different animals to race, I guess this kind of racing are also growing. Its fine as long as the local government allows it, but if its illegal I guess its not healthy at all.
