Petition: Cruel, Illegal Bull-Baiting at California Rodeo at Salinas
On July 19, 2019 these dogs were pitted against bulls and forced to attack them. This happened at the California Rodeo at Salinas in Monterey County California. This act of barbarism is not only against the law, it is completely unacceptable animal abuse. I am so sickened watching this video and sharing it. These poor bulls are tormented and tortured in the name of entertainment! They are bitten repeatedly and bleeding from their wounds. These dogs are also hurt when they are gored, trampled and kicked! I cannot fathom how anyone would find this entertaining. https://youtu.be/p5wJmlChnJM
We live in a violent world and this kind of behavior just desensitizes people to cruelty. It is just another step from abusing animals to abusing people and it is a step that has been proven to be connected. Please sign this petition, send emails and make the calls to speak up for the animals and to protect our future and our children from this unnecessary and unacceptable violence. We cannot expect to live in a safe peaceful world when we encourage and allow this type of violence. Those two are on opposite ends of the spectrum.
