What You Can Do to End the Cruelty of Bullfighting:
· Contact the Catholic Church and ask them to publicly renounce the practice of bullfighting. The Pope could end this torture tomorrow with a strong statement. See below for contact information.
If you can only do one thing to help the bulls, this should be it!
· Contact companies that sponsor and support bullfighting. Call and write expressing your strong disapproval. See below for a list of companies still supporting bullfights.
· Never attend a bullfight. Educate your family, friends, and coworkers. Encourage them to never attend bullfights. Send them a link to www.BullfightBloodbath.com
· Support local organizations in countries where bullfighting still takes place. One such group is the International Movement Against Bullfights.
· Join SHARK's email list to keep up to date on this issue.
Take Action
The Catholic Church
We urge you to make your views known to the Vatican and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops as well as your own diocesan Bishop regarding this horrific "entertainment".
The Pope could end this torture tomorrow with a strong statement condemning the torture of these innocent animals.
Email His Holiness through the Vatican's website: http://www.vatican.com/contact

Corona Beer
A bullring employee places a bloody harpoon tip into a Corona Beer cup. The harpoon was just ripped from the body of a bull who was tortured to death in a bullring in Puebla, Mexico.
Corona literally has the blood of the innocent on it. Hopefully caring people will think of this picture before ordering a Corona, or any product of Anheuser-Busch.
Ironically, Anheuser-Busch, maker of Budweiser Beer and the major shareholder of Corona, also owns the Sea World marine parks, and claims to care about animals and conservation. This picture exposes the truth.
Anheuser-Busch refuses to remove its support for possibly the worst animal torture on the planet, and not surprisingly also sponsors rodeos in the United States and Canada.
