As I have said, I think that some modifications should be made not to hurt the Touro on the bull fight but they are not seriously injured. The place were the bandarilhas are put (on the neck) is a fat zone and they don't hit bone or muscle.

We love Touros and as I have said they have a much better live than the cows and bulls that are quickly raised for meat, that are the vast majority.

They are proud and noble animals. They fight one time and pass the rest of their life on the planes, breeding. not a bad life

I liked Anthony Quinn as the "Portugee" in "The World in his Arms." He was pretty funny too. And, one of the best sailing scenes ever in any movie.

Obviously Anthony Quinn was not a Portuguese. If it was we would have not lost

Yes. Sailing over someone back then was, apparently, just as fun then as it is now. And full tops'ls to boot!
