From Animals Australia Unleashed

No country is without it’s troubling traditions. And for Spain, bullfighting is definitely one of those cultural dark spots.

Every year, thousands of bulls are forced into arenas to be tortured and killed for entertainment. Once the ‘fight’ begins the animals are taunted while men on horses stab spears into their back. This torture goes on untill the bull collapses from exhaustion or blood loss. Then the ‘matador’ deals the final blow with a sword to the heart or neck.

Fortunately this cruel and bloody ‘sport’ may soon come to an end in the Spanish region of Catalonia. On Wednesday, 28 July the Catalonian Parliament will decide whether to ban bullfighting. We need your URGENT help to send a message to the Catalonian Parliament that the rest of the world supports a ban on bullfighting.
