I haven't been able to find any information on this photo other than it was taken in Madrid on the 15th of May, 1920.
It appears to be a steer and that could be the pastor looking over his steer with sadness.
The steers are used to herd the bulls into the corrals and out of the ring if a bull needs to be removed from the plaza for whatever reason. Bulls do attack the steers once in awhile and it is possible that that is what has happened here, the bull gored the steer and it died inside the plaza.
