They’re breedin’ sech critters and callin’ ‘em Steers! Why the horns that he’s got ain’t as long as my ears. I cain’t figger what he’d have done in my day.

    Communication from Public Name: Colleen Smith Date Submitted: 05/11/2021 11:21 AM Council File No: 20-1575 Comments for Public Posting: I would hope that banning certain devices used in rodeo would be the least of your concern. Given the absolutely abhorrent conditions that are currently plaguing your city and entire state, your efforts should be attempting to figure out your homeless problem!! Communication from Public Name: Date Submitted: 05/17/2021 01:38 PM Council File No: 20-1575 Comments for Public Posting: Please Do NOT Ban Rodeo and Bull Riding in Los Angeles! This ordinance is unnecessary – PBR already takes great care of the bulls!! - The health and safety of the animals in bull riding is paramount. These animal athletes get the best care and live a great life – extending four to five times as long as the average bull. - PBR stock contractors make their living by breeding, training, and working with their animal athletes. They truly love these animal athletes, treat them as a member of their own family, and have many safeguards in place to ensure their care. - The bulls in PBR are not wild animals forced to compete – they’re bred and trained for their jobs. Bulls buck because of their genetics. They are not abused or coerced to compete. The flank straps and dull spurs used in PBR do NOT harm the bulls. - In addition to bringing millions of dollars of economic impact to LA, bull riding teaches important values like hard work, charity, respect, responsibility, and honesty. The sport is inclusive and promotes equality.

Ross, Jr., Anne and Ronald Abramson, Thelma and Melvin Lenkin 1990.44 Collection page and high resolution image Bucking Tradition – A Wild Ride with the Vaquero Luis Jiménez’s fiberglass sculpture, Vaquero, greets visitors to the Smithsonian American Art Museum at its north entrance. Jiménez intended his sculpture to be an unconventional take on the equestrian monument. In the course of uncovering our mysterious Vaquero, researcher Liz talked to a conservator, a vaquero rider and historian, and searched museum collections and bibliographic databases. In his 1985 interview with the Archives of American Art, Luis Jiménez recalled visiting Washington and making measurements of its equestrian sculptures. He decided to make the Vaquero, “in a way that you would look at the form all over again.” Washington is full of equestrian monuments commemorating military leaders, such as Civil War General John Logan at Logan Circle. Since the ancient Roman bronze of Emperor Marcus Aurelius, the horse in the equestrian monument is usually shown walking, standing, or rearing onto its hind legs. But the Vaquero’s horse literally “bucks” tradition with its two front feet planted on the base and his hind legs in the air. Jiménez must have also recognized the symbolism of bucking horse as synonymous with the American West and with liberty.

  • The Legal Status of Rodeo in New Zealand a Paper for the New Zealand Animal Law Association
    THE LEGAL STATUS OF RODEO IN NEW ZEALAND A PAPER FOR THE NEW ZEALAND ANIMAL LAW ASSOCIATION MARCH 2018 CATRIONA MACLENNAN | BARRISTER NZALA.ORG All New Zealand photos in this report are used by permission of the photographers, who wish to remain unnamed. These photos should not be reproduced in any capacity without the express permission of the photographers, which may be requested by contacting NZALA. Credits for Canada photos (pages 3, 8, 9, 77, 78, 87, 90 & back cover): Jo-Anne McArthur / We Animals All other photos are stock images from rodeos internationally. COVER IMAGE: TAUPO RODEO, NZ, 2016 – ANIMAL WRESTLING. FOREWORD From a legal perspective, rodeo in New Zealand is somewhat of an anomaly. Like recreational hunting or animal racing, some rodeo practices cause animals to suffer pain or distress for human entertainment. Unlike hunting and racing, rodeo is not explicitly allowed by legislation and is thus susceptible to the legal definition of ill-treatment, along with its criminal ramifications. The legality of rodeo in New Zealand under existing legislation is hanging by the thread of public acceptability or, in legal terms, the ‘reasonable or necessary’ test. Growing criticism of rodeo in the public opinion provides good prospects our Judiciary may soon accept the view that the pain and distress inflicted on rodeo animals are unreasonable and unnecessary according to modern New Zealand community values. Since 2004, rodeo in New Zealand has been regulated within the confines of a Code of elfare.W The legality of the current Code and its compatibility with its primary legislation deserve serious consideration, especially in light of the 2015 amendments to the Animal Welfare Act 1999 and the growing body of scientific evidence about the pain and distress of animals in rodeos.
