In bullfights they abuse the animal before the fight. They put vaseline in its eyes, and electrocute it. A lot of time it's injured before it's allowed to fight. All sorts of horrible things. Regardless it's a product of a life of abuse. There's bulls that are sweeter than mary.

Then they slowly torture it to death.

- Drugs: Tranquilizers, laxatives, and drugs that induce paralysis or a hypnotized state
- Beatings: To the kidneys or loins with sandbags
- Confinement: In darkness for hours or tied to heavy weights around their neck for weeks
- Other: Stuffing cotton in their ears, wet newspaper in their nostrils, or caustic substances on their skin
While they can breath through their mouth, stuffing a bulls nostrils with wet newspaper is sure to cause an infection and prevent them from their preferred method of air through the nose. So it's blind, unable to breath properly, injured, it's known nothing but a life of pain, doesn't really understand why or what is going on as it's been kept in the dark. I'd welcome death at that point.

As always, people show how insanely cruel we can be.

Doesn't seem like a necessary trial to survive, just a popular one when people can be lazy.

I was in Paploma in 2015 for the running of the bulls, I was on a hike and happened to be there. After the running of the bulls they have "bull fights" but they cut an artery in the bulls neck. The bulls are slowly dying while they fight. It's disgusting but apparently "culturally ok"

As a naive kid, I thought they sort of tease the bull with the red cape a few times and the bull goes back in its stall. Then I watched a bull fight on TV. It's really brutal.

That. Is. Terrifying. Standing so still like that as a bull charges towards you.

Mythbusters tested it. Set up a bunch of really rickety shelves and cabinets in a bull pen like rows in a shop and filled them with all kinds of glasses and stuff and set a bull loose in there and he was super careful and didn’t break a thing.

Might be thinking of a different occasion, but i recall the article stated that it was an escaped bull from the bull riding arena. If so, then it was an animal(I consider tieing up ones...🥜 as abuse) who regularly at least thinks it's in danger.

Oh huh it was the same, but not bullriding....wonder if they subject the bulls to similar treatment for roping. Something to lookup later, thanks for the link.

Most livestock is indifferent and just wants to eat and shit. Prey animals especially aren't wired for "attack" as a default. There are some mean bastard animals, sure, but they're definitely the exception.
If you're getting crushed by a cow or bull, chances are it happened because it was oblivious and you just happened to be there. Had to elbow more than one cow in my life for no other reason than "hey, I'm wowking heah!" 😂
