 STOP BULLFIGHTING

Bullfighting is an ancient tradition which is still celebrated in Spain and also in many other countries like France, United States or China. In this polemic custom, bulls are killed by called bullfighters and millions of people pay for seeing it and also enjoy how bulls die. Bullfighting should be completely banned because it is about an animal mistreatment and in contrast, people continue calling ''party'' or ''art''.

In spite of all the countries where bullfighting is celebrated, there are some places where it is forbidden. For example, in our country, in Calatonia, Asturias, Andalusia, Canary Islands and many villages; in the capital of Equator, Quito or in the city of Viana do Castelo in Portugal.

For many people, bullfighting is celebrated like a party because bullfighters kill bulls for pleasure and people enjoy and entertain seeing this spectacle. However, for me a party is something like going out with my friends to take a drink and dancing at the disco all the night.

In addition, for these people bullfighting is celebrated like an art, but I think that art is not putting a bull in the middle of a square and torture it. The truth art does not damage any animal, for instance we can consider like art a Picasso painting or the Statue of Liberty in New York.

Another thing that I have to say is that there are other animal mistreatments like dog's neglect which is very punishable, since you can go to prison and also you will have to pay big fines. And in contrast, bull's mistreatment is allowed in many places.

As a result of this, we can see that, although bullfighting is totally forbidden in some places, it is still practised in many parts of the world, Moreover, people pay for it and enjoy seeing how these animals suffer. What it's more, these people consider bullfighting like a party or an art. Personally speaking, I cannot understand how dogs' neglect and mistreatment is banned and punishable and not bulls' mistreatment, since both are equally animals.
