Spanish animal rights activists said bull fighting at the Toro de la Vega festival in Tordesillas should be abolished, calling the practice \"torture.\" Parliament debated a possible law to ban the practice Thursday in response to mass marches by the Pro-Animal Party, PACMA, and a petition with 85,000 signatures, ThinkSpain reported. At the Toro de la Vega, bulls are struck with as many as 100 spears as they run around a ring, PACMA members said. The bulls are covered in blood as they collapse and die. \"Torture cannot hide behind the excuse of \'tradition\', \" said Izquierda Unida party spokeswoman Laia Ortiz.
