Please join Humanity Through
Education in educating Rodeo patrons that animal abuse is not acceptable and
should not be considered entertainment. The Woodside Rodeo is an annual 4th
of July Junior Rodeo in which kids are taught to be cruel to other animals, including
chasing scared baby pigs and pouncing on them or grabbing them by a leg to capture
them in order win what is euphemistically called a ¡°.¡±
?
The foundation of Rodeo
¡°entertainment¡± is causing animals fear and pain and making sport of their
desire to escape. The only reason
and
violently buck and kick is because of the pain caused by the bucking strap. In
the case of the bull the strap is cinched tightly across his penis. A ban on
bucking straps would kill the rodeo as bucking horses and bulls are the main
rodeo events.
?
Other cruel events include and ¡°steer wrestling.¡± Please stand with us against this cruelty.
