Description

Afghan man watchs a cock-fighting tournament in Bagh Babor, in outskirts of Kabul, Afghanistan. Owners are allowed to stop the fight temporarily to refresh their roosters, and check their wounds, before sending them into battle again. Though the fights are not to the death, the roosters are bloodied and sometimes blinded before a winner is decided. Cock fighting, an old tradition in Kabul, was banned during the rule of the Taliban.
