Every September, in the town of Tordesillas in the Castilla y León region of Spain, a bull is chased down by men brandishing long spears on horseback. The bull is pursued, stuck, and then -- finally cornered and cowed by his assailants -- stabbed to death. The horror is unimaginable.
Today, together with our colleagues in Spain, we launched the "Break a Spear" campaign -- named in memory of the animals tormented and killed during the annual spectacle -- to bring awareness and an end to the barbaric killing for good.
Take Action!
