A raseteur failing to snatch the ribbon from in between the bulls horns running to the ring walls during the Fete des Gardians,Arles,France


The Course Camarguaise does not end with the death of the bull. This type of bullfighting is from the Camargue region of France (southwest of Provence) and involves men, called raseteurs, trying to pull ribbons off the bull’s horns. Unlike Spanish bullfights, the men are rarely injured and the bull is never killed.
