Subject: Mexican Fiesta - Please protest

This is about a fiesta that takes place every year in the Mexican state of
Veracruz. According to accounts from Mexico during the "Fiesta de la Virgen
de la Candelaria" in Tlacotalpan six cebu bulls are made to cross a river
and afterwards are submitted to extreme torture and eventuel killing by
drunken participants.  The event with the bulls is called "embalse de toros"
and will place on the February 1, 2006.

Please protest repeatedly with the president and the local authorities
mentioning the "embalse de toros".
