PRESS RELEASES
Animal Equality presents an exhaustive investigation into Spanish pig farms, documenting the lives and deaths of pigs over a period of more than two years - from August 2007 until May 2010 - on farms and in slaughterhouses throughout Spain.
Spanish society has been painfully examining its conscience this week after Spanish animal activists from Animal Equality managed to secretly film the slow and agonising death of the bull known as ‘el Toro de la Vega’, who after being chased for 30 minutes by a crowd of 300 armed with spears was pierced by a lance and then repeatedly stabbed for over 5 minutes in a barbaric yet traditional ‘fiesta’ in the town of Tordesillas, Spain on 15 September.
On the 5th of July 2007, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) organized a demo called the 'Running of the Nudes' as a protest against the so-called 'Running of the bulls' in Pamplona, Spain. It's the sixth time this PETA-organized demonstration has taken place, and every year this protest aims to gather together as many nude runners as possible, with the supposed intention of protesting against the use of bulls in Pamplona, but who end up showing their genitals in the media in some kind of carnival where the focus on bullfighting is lost.
