From the Metro, Bull attacks cow.

CIngram said...: It's not a sport, it's an art. A spectacle. The aim isn't to beat the bull but to create beauty. And they are brave. Death is rare but serious injury is not. Minor gorings, bargings, cartwheelings and tramplings are very common, and what separates them from death is often just a bit of luck.

You may not like the fact that it involves the death of an animal, but when done properly (which it usually isn't, even at the highest level) it is very beautiful.; 8 September 2009 at 15:52
