Ever since I was a kid growing up in Ogden Utah back in the early 80's, I've been fascinated by the Spanish bullfight. I even searched out books on bullfighting at the Weber County library, where I found and read "Death in the Afternoon" by Ernest Hemingway. I'm probably the only kid in Utah to have ever read that book. Now here we are 40 years later and I still enjoy learning about and keeping up with the bullfights.

En el tentadero


Un tentadero, the testing of calves for bravery.

By testing female calves for bravery a rancher will have a better idea of how their brothers might perform in the plaza de toros. These tests take place in small bullrings on the ranch itself.
