Best Answer

Pit bulls were created in the early 1800's after bear/bull baiting was made illegal in Europe. Since spectators could no longer watch Bulldogs fight bears and bulls, they crossed Bulldogs with Terriers to create what we now know as the "pit bull." These dogs were created to fight other dogs for sport.
