Bullfighting
Campaign
In November, The Donkey Sanctuary and our Spanish subsidiary, El Refugio del Burrito, were outraged to learn that a donkey had been used in a Spanish bullfight the previous month in the town of Navaluenga to the west of Madrid.
We also discovered a similar event had taken place in the nearby town of Burgohondo a few days later.
Since then, we have been preparing a legal case to try tostop donkeys being used in the bullfights later this year.
To help us in our campaign, we have produced the following petition letter and we hope you will join in our efforts.
Please send a copy of this letter, via post or email, to each of the town mayors in Navaluenga and Burgohondo:
• Example Letter (English)
• Example Letter (Spanish)

Since 1969 we have taken over 12,000 donkeys into our care in the
UK and Ireland. We also have core overseas projects in Egypt,
Ethiopia, India, Kenya and Mexico - bringing urgent veterinary
assistance to working donkeys in distress. Further projects exist
in Europe where many more donkeys need our help.
