(2) Animal fighting activity may increase the 
spread of diseases transmitted between animals and

(3) A number of Federal laws have been en-
acted to address cruelty to animals. 
(4) Recognizing the connection between animal

vestigation tracks animal cruelty crimes. 
(5) There is bipartisan and widespread public 
support for addressing animal cruelty. 
(6) There is a government interest in ensuring

unique investigative elements, by providing special-
ized knowledge and focus, and streamlining the han-
dling of these offenses.
