'It would make me sad and angry': Bullfighters in southern France fear that the government will ban the centuries old custom of Corrida, in which the animal usually ends up killed by a sword thrust by a matador

"Corrida is a tradition, an art, a dance with the bull," said Baptiste, one of about a dozen students who learn to wave the traditional red muleta cloth in front of bulls in the Arles bullfighting school.

At the weekend, pro and anti ban protesters marched in several southern France cities where corrida is still allowed. "Corrida is not a fight, it's the execution of a tortured innocent," one could read on a banner carried by one protester. "It's 2,000 years of history," said Frederic Pastor, municipality councilor in charge of corridas in the city of Nimes. "We glorify the bull," he said.
