Bullfighting remains popular in Spain, in spite of opposition from animal rights activists.
Social media users slammed a matador that wiped a bull’s eyes before killing it at a fight in Spain. Twitter users labelled the actions of bullfighter Morante de la Puebla “sadistic,” “disgusting” and “psychopathic.”
“Morante de la Puebla took a handkerchief out of his pocket to dry the tears of the bull he had been torturing for half an hour. This borders on psychopathy, it's a sick sadism,” PabloMM wrote alongside the post. But others defended the clip. User Raphael J Cortes, who posted the video seen more than 2.35 million times, wrote: “The antis distort everything. I am not going to deprive myself of sharing interesting things… This detail of Morantes caught my attention and I shared it.”
Some regions have tried to ban the sport, which is viewed by many as a key part of Spain’s cultural heritage. Catalonia famously banned bullfighting in 2010. But Spain's constitutional court eventually overturned the ban, arguing that Catalonia's regional government had acted beyond their power, as The Guardian noted at the time.
