The footage documents systemic abuse at the largest bullfighting stadium in Cheongdo County, known as the Mecca of Korean bullfighting - as well as three bull training farms and several local tournaments. 

During bullfights in S. Korea, two bulls are forced to fight each other. Handlers control the bulls using "saiko" - a rope that is tied around their neck and threaded through their nasal rings. The handlers shout and force the bulls into combat. The bulls repeatedly collide head-on, resulting in facial bleeding, forehead injuries, and pierced eyes. The bulls also ram into each other's sides, risking internal injuries. 

Under S. Korea's Animal Protection Act, animal cruelty for entertainment is illegal and dogfighting and cockfighting are prohibited; however, bullfighting is allowed because of a loophole that labels bullfighting a tradition.

Help end bullfighting in S. Korea - sign the petition urging the S. Korean government to ban bullfighting by closing the loophole in the Animal Protection Act.
