Spanish bullfighting is a traditional spectacle that involves a matador confronting a bull in a bullring. The event typically consists of three stages, known as "tercios," where the matador demonstrates their skill and bravery while showcasing the bull's strength and agility. The practice has deep cultural roots in Spain and is often accompanied by music and a festive atmosphere. However, it has faced criticism and controversy due to concerns about animal welfare, leading to debates about its place in modern society.
