Money is been made at this period because so many gamblers will go there to stake on a ram in other to make profit
Betting on this kind of game can be easy to predict by easily judging for the fitness and look of the rams I think, and one thing I am wondering is how is it done that these rams just begin to fight themselves, seems odd. You also said that some of the rams are secretly smuggled to were the ram fight is supposed to take place, how do people who their smuggled rams die in the process handle it.
No, the reverse is always the case because some rams may appear too weak but when they come in contact with another ram they get energized to fight harder. The statement of the op about some people smuggling some ram to gamble is not correct because the rams are trained rams that's why they can easily start fighting when they get to the gambling ground about the issue of where some cow die in the process of fighting, the owners are aware of the risk that's why its not always a problem when there is a dead ram.
