Portuguese fight to preserve bullfighting exception in Barrancos


Barrancos (Portugal) (AFP) – The village of Barrancos upholds local tradition despite Portugal’s 1928 ban on killing bulls at “corridas”, or bullfighting ceremonies. Although parliament granted a special exception to Barrancos, allowing it to continue with the killings, animal rights activists say it’s a cruel and outdated custom.
