“Tordesillas, Spain – PETA has sent an urgent action alert to hundreds of thousands of people who abhor cruelty to animals, calling on them to send e-mails to Mayor D. Emilio ílvarez Villazán of Tordesillas, Spain. PETA is asking him to call for an end to an annual event in which a young bull is pulled through the streets of the town by a rope around his horns and repeatedly stabbed with darts and spears until he is crippled. The spectacle is held every September during the festival of the Virgin of La Peña. The person who ultimately kills the bull is awarded a ceremonial spear and a medal by the City Council.”
