Bullfighting Is Nothing More Than Cruelty - Take Action Today @ The Animal Rescue Site via @addthis

Dear UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova: As a concerned animal advocate, I am writing to address the ongoing issue of bull fighting being accepted as a legitimate cultural tradition. Although bullfighting is seen by many as cultural heritage dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries, I see it as nothing more than pure animal cruelty. The fact is, there are always injuries and casualties in bullfighting. The animal is almost always killed either during the event or after, and the bullfighter often sustains serious injuries. I cannot see the purpose in an activity that leaves animals and humans bloodied and wounded. And there is simply no excuse for treating an innocent animal like a spectacle for human entertainment. Please do not recognize bullfighting as a legitimate sport anywhere, regardless of tradition. It's plain cruelty and nothing more.
