There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
I read about those fights, pckts. Those fights came "late in the game" after the "gringo's" took over. Neither the bulls nor the bears, and especially the bears were the great beasts who fought in the Mexican arenas. The bears were usually scrawny ( likely sub-adult ) and very often black bears. It wasn't long after the games turned into bears fighting donkeys or even rats. I have numerous books on the topic.
