At a festival in the Costa Blanca region of Spain, a bull runner was thrown and gored by a bull. The incident occurred during the 'Bous al Carrer' event, and the runner sustained serious injuries. PETA states that in such events, bulls are often killed and 50-100 participants are injured each year. These festivals, which result in dozens of injuries annually, pose dangerous consequences for both humans and animals.
In a festival in the Costa Blanca region of Spain, a bull runner was repeatedly gored by a bull while lying helplessly on the ground after being thrown into the air. In the horrifying footage, the bull can be seen attacking the young man's right leg. Despite the efforts of the spectators to distract the bull, they were unsuccessful.
This incident took place at the "Bous al Carrer" event in Calpe near Benidorm. The victim's injuries were described as serious and he is still receiving treatment in the hospital.
The most famous festival involving bulls is the San Fermin festival held in Pamplona every year in July. Dozens of runners are injured every year.
Despite the declining popularity of bullfighting, such festivals are still common in Spain. Similar events last year resulted in serious injuries and deaths.
The animal rights group PETA states that bulls are killed after these events. They claim that during the San Fermin festival, 48 bulls are tortured and killed over the course of a week.
In these shows, bulls are intentionally panicked and frightened. Animals often fall or collide while running at high speeds, resulting in injuries.
Between 50 and 100 participants are injured in bull runs every year. These events have dangerous consequences for both humans and animals.
