Generally i think in most European Countries and in USA, there is a more civilized behaviour towards animals than in other countries like in Asia, Africa, etc. and there are many animal protection movements, doing a great job. I have to admit that for instance in my country, Dogs and Cats are treated bad. There are many wild Dogs running in the streets and many people don't even want to touch them. They are considered to be dirty animals. And some police shoot them to make the streets "clean". I guess you could also compare it to many regions of spain, where animal protection is not so important and there is no such a sence for animals and their rights. You see many cats and dogs from Spain, imported to Germany to animal sanctuaries. But on the other side, you have some people in US (or elsewhere) who have a shotgun under their bed and would shoot a human beeing right in the head without thinking twice, but fight for animal rights and would not do any harm to a dog. Or you have people who use animals just as a replacement and compensation for a human beeing, because they are not able to be bond to humans anymore. Or the whole industry making billions of dollars each month with all kind of useless accesoires for dogs, cats, etc. This is also sick, just as it's sick to torture animals or don't care for animals, etc. In Germany, its also very exterem sometimes. When i go for a walk, out of 2 people, one of them has a dog and is talking with the Dog the whole time, as if the dog is a human and understands everything the guy is telling him. But when you walk past them and say hello, you don't even hear an answer sometimes. This is also a little sick, no? I think there should be some kind of middle way between these two extremes. Some people should learn, how to treat animals and others must learn other things again. As mentioned, i don't like bullfighting either but for me a life of a human beeing is still more important than a life of a Bull. No matter if that Bull was treated bad or not. So i would never say something like Doit said. Also some people mentioned, there is no fair fight and human always wins in bullfights. Well, this time the Bull somehow won. I don't think that there is any other meeting between an animal and a human today, where an animal has even a minimal chance to gore a human [:D]
