Bullfighting

Bullfighting is a traditional spectacle originating from Spain, where a matador performs an artistic and skillful display while confronting a bull in a bullring. The event typically involves a series of stages, including the introduction of the bull, the use of capes to test its movements, and eventual confrontation where the matador demonstrates agility and technique to dominate the powerful animal. Often ending with the killing of the bull, it combines elements of sport, art, and cultural ritual. While celebrated for its pageantry and historical significance, bullfighting also raises ethical debates about animal welfare.
