The Animalist Party PACMA condemned this Monday the “brutal” crushing of a bull with an SUV during the running of the bulls in Tendilla (Guadalajara), which ended the life of the animal last Saturday.
Through social networks, the political party shared a video in which you see how several people applauded after the attack and the demolition of the bull – which died after the blow -, while others deplore the end of the race and one of them blames what happened.

🤯That makes no sense. They approached the bull with an SUV, which he hit, causing him to die instantly. This is intolerable! It is clear that for the participants, the life of the bull matters to them… pic.twitter.com/pdYL7xUqkH

PACMA denounced that this type of event has as its central axis “animal abuse and suffering” and regretted that administrations “continue to promote a culture of violence against animals protected by the lack of regulation and control fruit of commitments with the bullfighting lobby”.
“This new episode of Tendilla may be shocking, but This is not an isolated event: it is the result of an institutional permissiveness which arises from the passivity of the parties in power, such as the PSOE and the SUMAR, which They won’t lift a finger to stop thisbut rather they go in profile so as not to lose voters,” said the party’s national president, Javier Luna, in a statement.
From PACMA, they demanded the “immediate ban” on bullfights and bullfights and urged local and regional authorities to “investigate what happened and clarify the responsibilities involved”.
