Colombian activists strip naked against bullfighting (video)

Bullfighting protest

Colombian animal rights activists got naked Thursday in an anti-bullfighting protest on Bogota’s central Bolivar square.

The dozens of protesters, with their bodies painted red and brown, formed the shape of a bleeding bull to demand a pohibition of bull fighting.

Bullfights, while controversial, are highly popular in Colombia. Legislators and the country’s Inspector General have so far refused to prohibit the activity.
