This document presents an argument against bullfighting, focusing on its negative impact on minors. It is supported by studies that demonstrate the relationship between witnessing animal violence, especially in children, and the development of aggressive behaviors as well as a decrease in empathy. Scientific evidence and international norms on children’s rights are cited to support the idea that exposing minors to this type of spectacle constitutes a violation of their rights. It is argued that the cultural justification of bullfighting cannot outweigh children’s well-being and the protection of animals. Finally, it concludes that governmental permissiveness toward this type of violence is ethically questionable.
