Woman Gored on Last Day of Bull Run
A 23-year-old Australian woman was hospitalized after being gored in the back by a bull during the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain. The day before 23 people were injured as runners were caught in a pile up and trampled by the bulls being driven into a bullring.
■Class discussion: Why do people risk their lives in such events? Why are some people thrill-seekers while others play it safe? Which are you? Is bullfighting cruel? How is it different from hunting or slaughtering animals?
