Este deporte surge del pastoreo, actividad que consiste en mover grandes rebaños de bovinos de un lado a otro dirigidos por hombres montados a caballo.
Los Toros Coleados is the national sport of Venezuela, which has its origins in the 19th century, during the colony, when the Spanish, peninsular whites and Creole whites began to found herds of cattle in the territory of Little Venice, later called Venezuela.
This sport arises from herding, an activity that consists of moving large herds of cattle from one place to another led by men on horseback.
Los primeros relatos de toros coleados aparecen cuando los esclavos y mestizos, al ver toros rezagados de los rebaños, eran alados por su cola con tal fuerza que los coleaban.
Actualmente hay muchos detractores de ésta actividad, por el maltrato animal, al igual que muchos seguidores por ser sentimiento nacional de Venezuela.
Para finalizar quiero enfatizar que ésta publicación, tiene como finalidad mostrar dos fotografías de mí autoría, que exhiben el momento exacto de una coleada efectiva.
The first accounts of tailed bulls appear when slaves and mestizos, seeing bulls lagging behind the herds, were winged by their tails with such force that they kicked them.
Currently there are many detractors of this sport, due to animal abuse, as well as many followers for being the national sentiment of Venezuela.
To finish, I want to emphasize that this publication aims to show two photographs of my own, which show the exact moment of an effective tail.
