International Online Report (Reporter Li Yu) Local time on July 6, the annual Benniu Festival opened in Pamplona, Navarra, Spain. Unlike previous festive festivals, this year's Bennifer Festival started in a protest.
Benniujie's name is San Fermin, San Fermin is Pamplona's patron saint. During the festival from July 6 to July 14, six bulls are released daily from the bullpen. After a group of young men, they run over 800 miles of "Benniu Road" and finally arrive in the city's bullring.
However, it is this traditional beef-raising campaign that has provoked protests by animal protection organizations in recent years. Before the beginning of this year's Bennifer Festival, 48 Spanish beauties took off their clothes, put horns, raised banners in hand, and stood in a cardboard coffin. The 48 bulls died every year for the San Fermin festival. With the development of society, Benniujie, which is inseparable from bullfighting, also brought strong opposition from animal protection organizations. They think it is an extremely inhumane way to treat animal abuse as festive joy.
During the San Fermin festival, not only the bull will die, but the people involved in the run of the bull will also be at risk of being injured. In the running process, the fans are trampled by the Bulls, injuries and even deaths every year.
