This Is A Typical Bullring Of Spain. Bullfighting (Also Known As Tauromachia Or Tauromachy) Is A Traditional Spectacle Of Spain, Portugal, Southern France And Some Latin American Countries (Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru And Ecuador), In Which One Or More Bulls Are Baited In A Bullring For Sport And Entertainment. It Is Often Called A Blood Sport By Its Detractors But Followers Of The Spectacle Regard It As A Fine Art And Not A Sport As There Are No Elements Of Competition In The Proceedings. In Portugal It Is Illegal To Kill A Bull In The Arena, So It Is Removed And Slaughtered In The Pens As Fighting Bulls Can Only Be Used Once. A Non-Lethal Variant Stemming From Portuguese Influence Is Also Practised On The Tanzanian Island Of Pemba.
