Cage/Background

Back in earlier ages, torturing animals and putting them on the edge could make them fight much more effectively than those under control. These bewildered and ferocious creatures were mainly used for entertainment, unleashed against each other in a confined space in a sort of gladiator tournament. Most specimen were purposefully kept hungry and stressed in a controlled environment, such as a confined cage.
Such wild animals could also be used for defensive purposes, mostly as a last resort in a cramped space. Lions, dogs and other agile species were very effective at charging down the first target they saw, inflicting additional casualties in enemy ranks. Sadly, these animals remained highly unpredictable until their fervor went away, stirring chaos in their close vicinity.
Today, torturing animals is considered a highly unethical practice. Despite, bull fighting lives on as tradition in Spain.
