Costa Rica Bullfighting Sports Event
Bullfights are held all through the year in Costa Rica, but Zapote's is considered to be the country's grandest bullfight event. At the end of each year, cattle farmers from all over the nation haul their bulls and gather at the capital, for the much-awaited celebration. And instead of glorifying man's power over the beast, the bullfights during Zapote celebrate bulls. The animals are never to be killed, only dodged.
