Bullfighting Campaign

The League Against Cruel Sports seeks a complete end to bullfighting anywhere in the world.

Tens of thousands of bulls are maimed, tortured and killed for 'entertainment' each year in Spain, Portugal, France, Columbia, Mexico, Venezuela, Peru, Guatemala and more recently, the USA. Now even China is considering introducing bullfighting.

During a bullfight, the animal is attacked by men on foot and on horseback with lances and harpoons. The matador forces the confused and exhausted bull to make a few charges and eventually he attempts to kill him with a sword. If not killed, the animal is stabbed repeatedly until paralysed. When the bull finally collapses, the spinal cord is cut, but the animal may still be conscious as his ears and tail are cut off and kept as a trophy.
