What is a toro pool?
Toro pool is a traditional game of dodging or jumping over a bull released into an arena or paddock. It is especially popular in the south of France, particularly in the Camargue, and in Spain.

This event was often one of the most eagerly awaited, attracting large numbers of spectators due to its spectacular nature. The practice is controversial, however, and gives rise to debate about the treatment of animals. But it remains popular with many bullfighting enthusiasts in France.
