[edit] Does this still go on?

Does anyone know if bull-baiting still exists anywhere in the world, whether legally or not? I can't really see farmers in the UK donating their animals for such a purpose. XYaAsehShalomX 23:04, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Not a hundred years or more in England. This was a public or commercial activity, you can'treally do it without someone noticing. Bulls are bread to breed not fight. Pubic taste in entertainment changed. This was originally done to improve the quality of the meat, but belief in effectiveness of/becessity for that also changed. Don't know about anywhere else.GBH (talk) 13:54, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah obviously I know it doesn't happen in England any more!! :) I was wondering about places like Pakistan where they still alow bear baiting. :( XYaAsehShalomX (talk) 01:33, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

There's a link about Scientology bull-baiting pointing to an article about auditing, yet in the referred article the word bull-baiting isn't even mentioned. Auditing is not bull-baiting. Someone should check for Scientology OSA manipulations and check this.--polarapfel (talk) 14:34, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
