Bull runs are cruel to the animals who are trucked around the country and forced to run in a panic through an area packed with screaming people. The event is also potentially fatal for human participants and bystanders, who are at risk of being trampled, gored, or otherwise injured.

Bull runs mean collisions, falls, broken legs, trampling, and other potentially fatal outcomes for everyone involved.

Georgia Animal Rights and Protection (GARP), an animal rights organization advocating for the compassionate treatment of animals, requests that the Georgia International Horse Park cancel the Great Bull Run, and switch to a compassionate and safe animal-free event.
