Toros! Bulls!

One of Costa Rica's major pastimes is the Rodeo!

Here, it is not a bullfight where the end result is a dead animal...instead it is a celebration of strength and speed as much to show off the bull as the man.  The ranchers that breed these beautiful creatures are proud of their strength, speed, breadth, and form.  They send bulls not only to be ridden, but even to run the ring with locals who dare to enter and try their speed against the 4-legged ones!


Check out some of the best of Playa Samara's December 2013-January 2014 Rodeo Week!
