• Conan Debuts the Next Great Bull sports

    Written by PETA

    It has only been a few days since bullfighting ended in Catalonia, but Spaniards are reportedly already coming up with new ways to keep matadors employed that are a lot less Conan the Barbarian and a lot more Conan O'Brien.

    Also in the works: a tournament of bulls' favorite card game …?

  • No More Blood in Barcelona

    Written by PETA

    The last bull has been stabbed to death in Barcelona now that the last scheduled bullfight has taken place in Catalonia, the Spanish region that's widely considered to be bullfighting's birthplace. Faced with nearly empty arenas and growing condemnation of killing bulls for "sport," the ban on this sadistic spectacle officially goes into effect January 1, and bullfighting is on its way out elsewhere as well.

    Curious tourists who purchase tickets or those who simply go along with what's included on their travel itinerary are the only ones keeping the fights alive and bulls dying. By the time an appalled spectator rushes out of the arena in horror, the damage has been done—and more bulls will endure an agonizing death as a result.

    Travelers to Spain, Mexico, and France can help end the carnage for good by refusing to buy a ticket and letting their travel agents know that they don't want bullfights included on their tour itineraries.

  • Naked Protesters Slam Fur Industry in Barcelona

    Written by PETA

    Seems like there’s been quite a bit of naked going on lately, especially with all the work that went into putting together this year’s glorious State of the Union Undress, but these images—from a recent anti-fur demonstration in Barcelona—are way too good to pass up. Dozens of activists gathered to draw attention to the cruelty of the fur industry on Monday, and the results are just incredibly compelling.
