There is nothing cruel about bullriding (unless you consider what the riders choose to put themselves through). My son is a bullrider and in all the years I have spent at rodeos and events, I have never seen a bull get injured or be abused in any way. I don't pay much attention to what goes on during other the other rodeo events but, I feel certain that bullriding does not contribute to animal abuse or neglect. In fact, most bulls are treated very well because of their potential to bring in large sums of money at these events.
