Stop torturing bulls in Tordesillas!

The undersigned request that the Town Council of Tordesillas (Valladolid, Spain) and the Government Castille and León immediately discontinue the cruel festival called %u201CToro de la Vega%u201D. This event is sponsored by the Government of Castille and consists of thousands of participants on foot and horseback armed with spears chasing a defenceless bull until it is cornered and killed. The animal dies a slow and painful death due to the numerous wounds inflicted. This event, declared to be of tourist interest, is not admissible in the twenty first century!
