In the eastern Spanish city of Onda, a man was attacked by a bull in a so-called bull hunt on Saturday – the 55-year-old died from his injuries.
Onda – In the Spanish tradition of running bulls, groups of bulls are driven through closed public roads – often the goal of such a bullhunt is an arena in which the animals have to compete against a bullfighter on the same day. Both bullfighting and running are considered extremely controversial traditions. Animal rights activists put the torment of the affected bulls in the foreground, while advocates of bullfighting see it as a spectacle, even an art form with tradition. In the eastern Spanish city of Onda there was an incident like this for the first time in a long time during a bull run like this on Saturday, October 30th: A 55-year-old man was attacked several times by a bull and died on the same day from his injuries *.
This was the first death of its kind in Spain since bullfights and runs can take place again due to the relaxation of corona measures. The city council of Onda broke off the festival after the fatal accident. * 24hamburg.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
