KABUL, AFGHANISTAN - NOVEMBER 15: An Afghan man transfers fighting cocks from one cage to another at the Ka Faroshi Bird Market in the Old City on November 15, 2012 in Kabul, Afghanistan. The Ka Faroshi Bird Market is a narrow lane-way tucked away behind the Pul-e Khishti Mosque that is lined with stalls selling birds by the dozen. Unique to the market is the Kowk, or fighting partridge, which are prized by their owners who lavish great care on them, and are kept in domed wicker cages. The owners fight the birds on Friday mornings in short bouts of strength as the birds are too valuable to allow them to be seriously harmed, with spectators gambling on the results.
