Rodeo Wrangler for Saturday Critter

 


I recently revisited some of my earlier work, which was featured in a local Melbourne newspaper. I still recall the protestors gathered outside the main entrance, hurling accusations of murder and animal cruelty at me as I walked through the gates.

  1. Great moment. I don't know if these rodeos are as cruel as bullfights here...

  3. Por lo que nos dices ocurre como aquí con las corridas de toros en las que son mas los que se manifiestan en contra que a favor, estos últimos solo entran.
    Recuerdo una manifestación anti taurina en la que una persona manifestante llevaba un perro de los de raza pequeña con dos pegatinas que cubrían sus costillares. Estuve por hacer una foto.

    Saludos.

  4. The gates of the newspaper or gates of the rodeo?

  6. I don't know about animal cruelty. But I CAN see a human's life being put at risk.

  7. A very good action shot. As kids we were taken to rodeos, usually at Lang Lang, and we never thought about the cruelty to horses.

  11. Rodeos are a showcase for cowboy skills. Bullfights are controlled torture.

  12. Skill and strength pitted against a very strong animal - well captured, indeed.

  13. Hello,
    Great action shot! The wrangler is more likely to get hurt than the animal.
    Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter and post. Take care, have a great day and happy weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
