This is Polvorín.
In 2015, he was used in a cruel festival where his horns were set on fire. That night left its marks.
Polvorín survived and was fortunate that people rescued him.

🇪🇸 Spain bans bullfighting involving people with disabilities!
😡 Yes, you read that right. Spain used to host bullfights where people with disabilities were mocked… and animals were exploited.
Fortunately, this cruel practice is now banned! 🐂✊

What many people don’t know is that EU agricultural subsidies also end up with breeders of bulls used for bullfighting.
It is estimated that around €200 million per year is involved.

🌊🐂 Yesterday we joined the protest against the cruel festival #BousAlaMar in Jávea (Alicante), organized by Dènia Animal Save.
❗️This week bulls and cows will be harassed until they jump into the sea. Once in the water, they can drown, as happened last year in Jávea.
CAS International en @animanaturalis.org hebben vijf aangiftes gedaan tegen de correbous in L’Aldea (Catalonië). Tijdens deze stierenfeesten zijn meerdere overtredingen vastgesteld, zoals deelname van minderjarigen en het ontbreken van verplichte controle
www.cas-international.org/nieuws/vijf-...
Ons onderzoeksteam in Spanje heeft vastgelegd hoe de stieren worden gedood tijdens de stierengevechten in Pamplona.
Let op: de beelden kunnen als zeer schokkend worden ervaren.

RIP for the 24 bulls killed in Pamplona (Spain) this week. Tomorrow another 6 will be killed.
The bulls used for the bull run will during the San Fermin festivities are killed the same day during a bullfight... 60 bulls in total, during 10 bullfights.
Vanuit CAS International en @animanaturalis.org hebben we een nieuwe reportage uitgebracht over de wrede tradities met dieren in Spanje. Dit keer brachten we de praktijken tijdens het straatfeest met koeien in Sant Jaume d’Enveja (Catalonië, Spanje):

Instead, policy-makers should look at where #AnimalWelfare measures can be improved in the Common Agricultural Policy, both in its application across the EU and at Member State level.
Recommendations in our NEW report by @ieep.eu: bit.ly/4mYsR6u
Many of our members, like @casinternational.bsky.social, have been campaigning against bullfighting for years, due to its unethical nature and the enormous distress it causes to bulls... all for human "entertainment".
No policy should be permitted to support it, no matter how indirectly. ❌
🐂 Did you know that the EU's biggest farming policy can also affect animal welfare issues beyond farming, like #bullfighting?
Certain financing streams of the Common Agricultural Policy can technically go towards supporting these kinds of cruel practices.
It's vital this stops. 🚫
