Gruesome injuries and even death face animals at the Mad Bull rodeo – SAFE

March 23rd, 2021

The annual rodeo season continues this weekend at the Mad Bull rodeo in Otago. Like last season, animals will be at risk of injury or death. Two animals died last rodeo season, both at ‘Mad Bull’ rodeo events in Otago. SAFE spokesperson Will Appelbe said the treatment of animals at rodeo events is appalling to most Kiwis.
