Topic:Are rodeos cruel to animals?
Hi! My name is Adam. I'm from the US, and the question is, do you think rodeos or circuses are cruel to animals?
I'd have to go with yes on this one. I think that the majority of them probably are although I don't have much experience with either. So my opinion is probably just hearsay or things I've heard from other people.
Something that comes to mind is like bullfighting which is an interesting sport that takes place all around the world actually. I heard that there was bull fighting in – traditionally in Spain but also in parts of South America and even in Southeast Asia. I saw an advertisement for bullfighting in Thailand which I was surprised to see. And I think that's probably cruel to animals but to what extent? I'm not sure.
So tough question.
