- This article is about the sport; for the Jean-Claude Van Damme movie, see Bloodsport (movie).
A blood sport is a sport involving bloodshed or the killing of animals for food, pest control, or entertainment. Many animal rights groups are opposed to all uses of animals by humans, while other groups oppose some activities but not others. In particular, in the West, many people oppose the use of animals for fighting, but support (and may participate in) fishing or hunting.
