Clara Kreutter is celebrated in Spain. In Germany, on the other hand, there is a lot of criticism for the bullfighter – including a criminal complaint.
Spain – In August, Clara Kreutter made her debut as a bullfighter *. She killed two bulls in front of a cheering audience, a dream came true, was taken on the shoulders by the fans and carried out of the arena and praised by several Spanish media outlets. She is the first German who professionally pursues her job, which is also her passion, in Spain. Anything but a matter of course in a male-dominated world. But not everyone is convinced of Kreutter's success, on the contrary: The animal welfare organization PETA is filing a criminal complaint against the bullfighter from North Rhine-Westphalia.
All information about Clara Kreutter, her fame in Spain, but also her criminal complaint can be found on Kreiszeitung.de *.
Clara Kreutter cannot understand the excitement about her passion. She is of the opinion that the people who get upset the loudest don't even know what the bullfighting culture and tradition is all about. She sees the arena duel between humans and animals as a metaphor for life. You will hardly be able to change your critics with such a comparison. * Kreiszeitung.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA.
