Persuasive Essay On Bull Riding

In calf roping, calves weighing less than 300 pounds are forced to keep running at rates that exceed 25 miles per hour when they are roped.

They burst out of the chute at top speed just to be held back - clotheslined - with a choking rope around the neck. They are frequently harmed and some are killed.

A bull, called the bone bull, sent out to marry her, but was turned away. He tried multiple times, and finally, she gave in to him and went to live with the bone bull as his wife. Splinter Foot Girl’s father and the rest of the people she lived with missed her terribly, so they helped her escape by having a badger and a gopher dig through the ground to help her get away. The bone bull was enraged when he discovered Splinter Foot Girl was gone, so he followed the trail to a large tree where Splinter Foot Girl and her warrior family were hiding.

The truth is that pit bulls do have a few qualities that could make its attacks on people more dangerous than those of other breeds. These qualities are great strength and great tenacity.

If the bull is too timid, the fight could be boring because the bull will not charge when provoked, not allowing the matador to make skillful passes.

An ideal bull is one that is brave but the matador is able to manipulate. This allows the matador to show his artistry and skill in controlling the bull.

Such “performances” do not teach audiences about how animals behave under normal circumstances. Instead, they are often portrayed as ferocious and stupid.
