Featured Animal Action
In one scene three gang members are conversing, and in the background we see three roosters in a pen walking about. In another scene, off in the distance, three dogs can be seen walking through an alley and rummaging through trash. These were not animal actors. They were local animals who just happened to be captured on film in the background. Therefore, American Humane Association is not rating Blood In...Blood Out.
