Bullfighting is in crisis
27 June 2013
RTE Radio 1's World Report programme has highlighted that the bullfighting industry in Spain is in crisis as numbers attending bullfights continue to drop.
"Younger Spaniards are showing little interest in the 'sport' while the downturn in the Spanish economy has made many once loyal fans turn their back on the bullring," the 23 June 2013 report outlines.
ACTION ALERT
If you choose to holiday in a bullfighting country (Spain, France, Portugal, Mexico, Peru, Venezuela), please do not visit bullfighting arenas or museums. Avoid purchasing any bullfight-related souvenirs. Join the international campaign against bullfighting. Please register your opposition to this horrific blood sport with the governments and political representatives of bullfighting countries as well as to the local Ambassadors.
Contact the Spanish Ambassador to Ireland to register your opposition to bullfighting. Express your desire to see bullfighting banned throughout all of Spain.
