This does not look good for the humans OR the horses ... "Wranglers try to subdue a mustang during the 400-year-old Rapa das bestas horse festival in the village of Sabucedo, Spain. Hundreds of wild horses were rounded up from the mountains and corralled for shearing and marking." Shearing and marking?

Found this via Google: www.galinor.es/galeria/rapa-e.htmlIt looks like they are sitting around enjoying watching two horses fight? Horrid. They apparently shear the manes, as a sign of having subdued them. Great. Got to love the way the Spaniards entertain themselves at the expense of animals. It's not just the bulls, it's the horses, and I wonder what other animal torture they enjoy?

Isn't Spain the country that took delight in pushing donkeys off of a building a few years back? It was on Inside Edition or something.......
The older I get and the more I learn about idiots around the world, the more I want to stay home. I would not be a very good guest in those countries.
