Povijesna pobjeda u borbi protiv okrutnih festivala bikova


4 srpnja 2016

PACMA se već jedanaest godina bori protiv Toro de la Vega festivala, event prilikom kojeg tisuće muškaraca love bika i izbodu na smrt kopljima. Stranka za životinje i europarlamentarka Anja Hazekamp demostrirali su prošle godine zajedno s PACMA-om na ulicama Madrida, a pratilo ih je i stotina tisuća ljudi koji su također mislili da ovoj okrutnoj zabavi mora doći kraj.

Ova dugogodišnja borba dovela je do toga da lokalne vlasti ove godine nisu izdale dozvolu za ovaj okrutan festival. Ovo godine po prvi put policija neće istupiti protiv protest, već će se zalagati da se bikovi ne ubijaju.

Povijesna pobjeda za PACMA-u i još jedan uspjeh Španjolske da se životinje ne love, ozlijeđuju ili ubijaju iz razonode tokom festivala i borba s bikovima.

For 11 years, PACMA has been fighting against the Toro de la Vega festival, an event where hundreds of men chase after a bull and then kill it with lances. Last year, Party for the Animals MEP Anja Hazekamp demonstrated together with PACMA in the streets of Madrid, followed by one hundred thousand people who believed that this cruel popular entertainment was unjustifiable and had to stop.

The years-long fight has now led to the regional authorities deciding not to grant a permit for the cruel festival this year. This year is the first time that the police will not act against the protest, but that they will be there to prevent the bull from being killed.

A historic victory for PACMA, and again one step closer to a Spain where animals are not chased, injured or killed for entertainment during festivals or bull fights.
