SB 1111 Oklahoma Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Cockfighting; modifying offenses and penalties. Effective date.

SB 1111 updates Oklahoma's cockfighting laws by expanding the definition to include training fights where birds are encouraged to attack, and declares fighting bird equipment (like knives or cages) as contraband subject to seizure. It repeals outdated asset forfeiture provisions and adjusts penalties: first-time violations are now misdemeanors (up to $500 fine or one year in jail), second offenses carry higher fines ($2,500 max), and third offenses become felonies (up to two years in prison or $5,000 fine). The bill also explicitly prohibits activities like promoting, refereeing, or advertising cockfights. The law takes effect November 1, 2025.
