In states that are noted for corruption in general, such as Kentucky, Mississippi, and Oklahoma, some of the police have done everything in their power to protect cruel, illegal cockfighters, but our persistence is proving that there is a limit to the ability of corrupt police to protect these criminals.

This update was supposed to be a report of the first quarter of
2023, but we’ve been so busy that the months have gone by in what
seems like just a few weeks.
They say time flies. Given our nonstop pursuit of animal abuse
across the country, the adage has proven to be true. Our work is
both physically and mentally exhausting for our entire team, but
cockfighters nationwide are under siege in a way they never dreamed
possible in their worst nightmares.
I can’t adequately express the gratitude of the SHARK Team for your
support of our efforts. There are precious few people in the animal
protection movement who understand the importance of fighting animal
abuse where it occurs - out in the real world. Animal cruelty occurs
largely in places where one doesn’t want to go, in conditions that
are often not just uncomfortable, but are downright dangerous.
That’s why so very few organizations leave their friendly confines.
It’s also why they get so very little done.
Animal abuse is like cancer. You have to go after it, where it
happens, and cut it out. You allow us to do that. Our victories for
animals are yours also.
