Bull Fighting is a colorful, graceful sport with a long tradition.
It is a little tough on the bull. We also question the method.
If the matador came into the ring and took on the bull head to head,
maybe the fight would be fair. But henchmen wear down the animal
before the star matador even does his thing. Not much challenge.

The matador gets the bull to lower his head,
opening up his shoulder blades.
That is the spot where the sword is thrust.
You can purchase bull meat at the market the next day.
