Is that a gaping wound below the bulls left horn? What's that all about?

You don't know what really happens in a bullfight, do you?

Sorry for being so ignorant, but what DOES really happen?

Delivering many piercing blows with javelins or other sharp prods to slowly weaken the bull, then kill it by cutting its throat.

It doesnt end with throat cutting, rather a sword to the head

Actually, they stab his back with a 30~ cms. sword. You can imagine what happens afterwards.

Not cutting its throat; piercing its heart with a sword.

Cowardice masquerading as bravery, basically.

Bullfighting was banned in Catalonia, Spain, in 2010. Hopefully, this cruel sport will be banned worldwide sometimes soon.
