Bull Fighting
If bull
fighting is the famous Spanish tradition than yes, it is hard to give up, but
when millions of people are thrown into the
picture that fight for the bulls right for survival than that is another story
not to be missed. When PETA brought out the world famous campaign against the
running of the bulls, people around the world united and started to campaign against
the barbaric mass slaughter of these docile creatures. Many of you are probably
thinking now, 'Docile? They charge at the sight of you' Well, this is a faux
fact that people at bull rings want you to think. Bulls are head cow of the
heard and would do almost anything to protect their young and their females, so
yes they will charge, but only for protecting just like a human would fight for
their child or families protection. In bull fights, the mentors (I think that's
what they are called) annoy them, they use red flag to irritate and frustrate
them, making them charge and than a knife, a sword, a harpoon or a dagger is
trust into their back, slaughtering them, or even worse damaging them. The bulls
may still be alive and living at this point and are still forced to charge, so
yet again another sharp object is trust into
them in till finally the bull lies down for rest and is stabbed to death by the
Spanish mentors. But wait, there is more! The bulls are not only dragged from
the ring, but they are are sliced up and than sold as burgers or what have you
around the bull fighting ring for the people to enjoy. What a great end for a truly
magnificent animal.
PETA as I
have said before fight against Bull Fighting like many animal lovers worldwide
do. There is a special tradition in Spain and Mexico called 'The Running Of The
Bulls' where before a bull fight the bull is prodded with electronic sticks and
is beaten to make the poor animal go insane with frustration, than it is let
lose around the streets and finally driven into the bull fighting arena were the
bull fighting slaughter begins. Well, PETA wanted to take the insult out of this
'sport' and invented a system called 'The Running If The Nudes' were again
people united and protest against the 'The Running Of The Bulls' and run naked
(or topless - many people are still in bras and pants many times) through the
streets and call for justice. I found this a very effective way to fight, but
sadly PETA continues to fight for the bulls rights and the 'Running Of The Bulls
& Nudes' continues.
Bull fighting is sadly a very popular sport today. Many people from worldwide countries visit Spain and Mexico to witness this horrific deaths and apparent trials of death, but these people claim they love animals and that they are protecting them? Well, I hate to tell them but bulls are very slowly beginning to die out because of this.
If you are going on holiday this year to Spain than please please please do not support these painful and utterly cruel death. Do you need proof to show why? Than please watch some of the videos below, I think the words speak for themselves.
Videos of a real Ferdinand named 'Bright eyes'
After being tortured beyond imagination, the fallen bull Bright Eyes has to endure one more atrocity as his ear is cut off for a trophy. Blood runs down the skull and pools under the animal's head. Bright Eyes is somehow still alive and conscious, feeling every cut and jab. The crowd continues to cheer and whistle, fully aware of what has just happened.
A matador approaches the fallen bull Bright Eyes from behind and knifes the animal in the back of the neck. The bull falls over with eyes bulging in shock and terror. The matador continues to cut the still conscious animal, while children run over to see the gore and blood close up.
