This is reflected in animal racing where camels, horses, elephants, dogs and many other species are placed in contest among their own kind. However, because in such matches there is a natural disadvantage on one side, more sport is considered to exist in pitting a pair or more of specimens from the same species against each other. Fights may consist of a snake versus a mongoose (in Asia), a dog versus a dozen large rats (in Europe), a bear versus several dogs (in Pakistan), any single captured wild animal against a pack of dogs (in the Americas), or a man versus a bull (in Hispanic countries). Animal fighting sports are a human entertainment usually associated with gambling on the outcome of a fight to the death between two or more animals.
