REPORT:: |
Today, as the runners were still chanting their third
and final homily to San Fermin, the pack of wild bulls
and bell-oxen were suddenly released from the pen. But
it simply caused more surprise than panic. The bulls
were led along behind the bell-oxen, all in a compact
group and they stayed tightly together all along the
sloping stretch of Santo Domingo. It was impossible
for the runners to get in front of these "Torrestrella"
bulls as they stayed tightly attached to the bell-oxen
along the stretch. The fast pace was the only danger
for the runners , many of whom were knocked over by
the running pack of animals. |
