Six protestors jumped into the ring after the killing of the first bull in the fight yesterday

A group of half a dozen anti-bullfighting protestors jumped into the ring at Madrid’s famous Ventas bullring yesterday. They held up banners in Spanish and English protesting against animal ill-treatment and then sat down in the ring. Up to now such protests in Spain have been limited to gatherings outside bullrings.

The protestors who want to see an end to bullfighting were booed by the crowd and finally removed by the bullring’s security guards.
