Legislators in Mexico City, home to the world’s largest bullring, voted Tuesday to ban bullfights where the animals are killed or wounded, as opponents and supporters staged rival protests.
The initiative, which was promoted by the capital city’s mayor Clara Brugada, aims to move toward “violence-free” bullfighting events.
Mexico City cannot allow “cruelty as a spectacle, much less the long pain and death of an animal for entertainment,” Brugada said last week.
