Spanish people really have a thing for bulls, don’t they. Bullfighting, the festival of Pamplona, they’re all centered around the bull.
During the Bous a la Mar Festival, in Denia, near the city of Alicante, people get chased by bulls through the streets and into the Mediterranean Sea. The brave participants plunge into the waters just before the bulls are about to catch them. The animals often fall into the sea as well, where they are taunted some more. Eventually, the bulls are caught with a lasso and towed back to shore by a boat.

I don't understand how people get pleasure out of torturing, scaring and taunting defensless animals. This is just an example of the disgusting treatment these poor animals get at the hands of people not civilised enough to stop and think about what they are doing. Why inflict so much needless suffering to animals?
"uncivilized" is the keyword...
