It’s good news week for a range of much malaigned animals. The Spanish government is implementing new laws that will protect pidgeons, dolphins and animal mostley seen in Zoo’s. Sadley though; Not the dear old bulls.
Again, drawing from the Sur in English, the free newspaper for the South of Spain.
Spain’s new animal rights law bans pigeon shooting, zoos and dolphinariums.
Dogs, Cats and Ferrets are not allowed allowed to be sold in shops. The law also bans the use of wild animals in circuses and activities in which animals could be damaged or killed, such as cockfights and pigeon shooting.
However, the text does not make any reference to bulls or bullfighting, although government sources have said a last-minute modification could be possible. See more
