FIRST NATIONAL SURVEY CONFIRMS A VIRTUAL CAMPAIGN

Peru has spoken out against bullfighting

Peru has been confirmed as a country where bullfighting is still practiced more anti-bullfighting world, through a recent opinion poll commissioned by the CAS International in partnership with the Peruvian animal protection group UPA (United Animals)

In this survey - the first of its kind undertaken in Peru nationally - which was conducted by independent polling company Datum at the end of November 2008, Peruvians were asked about their views on bullfighting. The results stunned the bullfighting movement, which though I knew that Peru was a highly taurine, did not expect such a high level of opposition.

The results show that 86% of Peruvians over 18 years of age are not interested in bullfights, 68% are against them and 66% want a national law that prohibited. Regarding the question about whether the municipality should be declared bullfighting ( as over 60 who have already done in the world ) 64% said they would like.

This rejection of bullfighting can be seen not only nationally but also by region in each of the Peruvian departments, where it is seen that there are always more people against than in favor of bullfighting.

In fact, in some departments, the rejection of bullfighting is even stronger than the national results, with 96% people in Ica not interested in bullfighting, 81% of people Callao wants a national ban, 77% of people in Junin against bullfighting, 73% of people in Huancavelica wanting their declared anti-bullfighting towns and so forth.

In the capital Lima (including Callao) survey undertaken by the University of Lima since 2003 that the opposition was already increased from 63.2% of people against bullfighting to 83.1% in 2007, not only is now confirmed our survey, but we have also shown that this opposition to bullfighting and involves a vast majority wants a national ban (81% in Callao and Lima 73% capital).

The results also show that bullfighting is less popular in urban than in rural areas. Generally speaking young people are more opposed to bullfighting elderly, wealthy people show more interest in bullfighting that less wealthy people, and be bullfighting is more common in the mountains than anywhere else in the country.

detailed analysis of the results suggests that the percentage of Peruvians who are strong supporters of bullfighting are only about 2%.

The demographic characteristics of the results suggest that over time is likely that opposition to bullfighting in Peru will increase even more, and therefore any political decision to ban bullfighting is popular in Peru and find no too much opposition, except in a few departments in the sierra. In fact, there is a project law in the Peruvian Congress to ban and the campaign is spearheaded by the national organization Antitaurino Peru, we hope this survey will generate more support for him.
