At a press conference held in Seattle on February 8, 2007, and in a press release, the Humane Society (HSUS) alleged that Amazon.com is selling two pitbull dog fighting videos (DVDs).

According to the HSUS statement they have been requesting the removal of what they characterize as "illegal animal fighting materials" for more than a year and a half.

A check of the Amazon.com website mid-afternoon (PT) on February 8, 2007, found that one title described by HSUS, while displayed as "… currently not available", was listed in the Amazon.com inventory complete with a customer rating of one star out of five and a picture of the package.

Amazon.com is also accused of selling magazines related to cockfighting.

Amazon.com has been contacted seeking comment but they have not responded by press time.
