Toro Jubilo ( Animal lovers unite!)

What Toro Jubilo (Bull of Fire) really is. After reading, please sign and share the petitiosn to help stop this brutal "tradition"
If you thought bullfighting was cruel and barbaric, you’ll soon learn there are far worse ways to kill an innocent animal in the name of primitive entertainment.

Every year, on the second weekend of November, a horrific show takes place in the streets of Medinacelli, an otherwise picturesque Spanish town. As soon as the sun sets, bulls are brought into the town square, surrounded and restrained by the “bravest” of participants. Big balls of pitch are attached to the bull’s horns and the animal is set loose through the town.

This savage bull run is known as Toro Jubilo, and the bull is called Toro de Fuego, which translates as “bull of Fire”. As the pitch burns like a bonfire on the horns, it scorches his eyes and face causing it unspeakable pain. Disoriented and in agony, the bull often runs into walls and hurts himself even more, while the crowd run around him and cheers.

After hours of immense pain and eventually being blinded by the flames, the bull dies in agony. If this wasn’t cruel enough, the animal’s carcass is cut up and split among the participants to the event. Toro Jubilo is viewed simply as a form of entertainment by the people of Medinacelli.

1- Petition | LIVE BULL TO BE SET ON FIRE-SPAIN-ACTION NEEDED | Change.org

2- http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/fir...of-live-bulls/

3- Help Stop the Sadistic 'Fire Bull' Festival in Soria | Take Action | PETA.org.uk - 1

4- Even More Horrific Bull Torture Continues in Catalan Despite Ban - ForceChange


I wont add pictures because its semi NSFW but you click the links you could see the horrid acts that people perform on these poor innocent animals.

Killing a bull peacefully for meat is one thing, but torturing to death is unacceptable. Signing the petition(s) takes two minutes.



Thanks to all in advance!
