Fabián Montes

Fabián Montes, a 60-year-old dentist and prominent cock breeder in Colombia, keeps around 1,000 birds and contends that cockfighting is a natural behavior for the animals. He argues against the recent ban on the practice, suggesting that it should be regulated rather than outlawed. Montes believes that the animals are not mistreated and emphasizes that the competitive nature of the birds is inherent, developed through centuries of breeding.
