Can you imagine the British doing this to Sheep or Pigs or any animal for that matter. Why are the Spanish allowed to commit inhumane cruelty to Horses, Bulls and Chickens?

This should be outlawed by the EU. Who agrees?

Answer 1

What is it? Horse wrestling?

Ed> oh i see, i read the captions this time, not very nice and a bit of a waste of time.

I don't like the way that all the captions are just c**p horse puns it's not really a comical event.

Answer 2

i couldn't agree more,if they all want to be a part of the EU etc,well they should all have to abide by certain rules,and enforced,cruelty is just that,no matter where it is.

Answer 3

Yes definitely. Shocking pictures. I cannot bear for animals to be treated cruelly. We do not have that right!!! Horses r fantastic creatures.

Answer 4

I can't see how this a justifiably called a festival the Spanish treatment of animals is disgusting.

Bull fighting has not been banned in spain by the EU so i can't see them banning this.

Answer 5

It's crazy-i agree!
