soon as the bullfighter, also known as the matador,
enters the ring, he attracts the bull by waving his red
cape at it-In this way, he tries to bring the bull past

POINTS FOR DISCUSSION ‘

practice. Those who defend it argue that it is a dearly
held tradition which has existed since ancient times
in one form or another. For example, a four-thousand-
year-old wall painting depicting a bull was found in
Crete. It shows male and female acrobats grabbing the
animal’s horns and jumping over its back. To this day,
the sport requires skill, agility, courage and a certain
style of movement. Supporters also argue that rather
than being a victim, the bull is a worthy opponent,
deserving of respect.
Modern bullfighting is a combination of ritual and
primitive blood-letting with an attempt to gracefully
guide the bull and kill it in a manner which seems
courageous but without too much bloőd and gore.
However, the majority of foreign spectators are so
disgusted that they never return to another bullfight
after witnessing such cruelty. Usually, they leave

whatsoever. The bull may still be fully conscious when
his ears and tail are cut off as the final show of victory.
If the matador has done well, the president of the bull
ring may award him one of the bull’s ears. In some
cases where his performance is exceptional, he is given
both.
While bulls are the victims of this industry, matadors
seem to be the heroes. Television and other forms
of media glorify them and present them as true
celebrities. They are seen as the stars of the show
and wear elaborate costumes of silk and gold. These
glittering outfits are referred to as ‘suits of light’ and
can cost several thousand pounds each. A top matador
must have at least six of them a season. Successful
matadors can fight up to one hundred bullfights a
year and through sponsorship some of them end up
multimillionaires. Many, however, pay for their fame
by receiving several horn wounds in the arena. In fact,
some have even lost their lives, but who can blame the
bull?
After reading the arguments in the text, what is your personal view on bullfighting?
Think of other sports that involve animals. Do you think we should use animals in such a way?
