A 23-year-old Australian woman was gored in the chest on the final day of Spain's San Fermin bull-running festival, where bulls chase people down the cobbled streets of Pamplona.

The woman was taken to hospital for surgery and was in a serious condition, health officials said.

Some say it gives them the adrenaline rush but i really think it is plain stupidity.

What makes it even more worse is the fact that these bulls are killed in the most gruesome way when they make it to the arena.

It is cruelty towards animals.It's barbaric and uncivilised behaviour.

Yes MN. I have seen Cockfight in TV channels...yes it should be enlisted in the crimes such as they have for camel killing (even for road accidents).

LLR: They don’t run with the bulls cuz it’s not in the culture, however dog fights, cooks fights, snakes fights are quite popular are still there in many parts of the ME ( Specially in north Africa ), and it’s still not considered crime.
