Animal Care & Control of New York City says 43 roosters were removed and evaluated by veterinarians. If they're cockfighting roosters, they will likely be euthanized. A spokesman for the organization says roosters that have been used in fights can't be rehabilitated.
Police say the effort to shut down the cockfight was led by federal law enforcement authorities.
