Bull gores German cyclist to death in Southern France


The couple were passing a farm near Mejane when fighting broke out among several bulls inside an enclosure and one of the animals broke out. The couple had been holidaying in the nearby village of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, they were cycling by a farm when they spotted animals fighting near a fence and the fight caused the fence to knock over. An animal realized an opening, a chance to escape and ran out of it as fast as he could. As the bull ran out, it saw two cyclists riding by the farm, a man and a women. As the couple were riding by, they saw one of the many bulls run out of the fence and coming toward them. I would assume they were trying to pedal away as fast as they could but unfortunately, the bull caught them and attacked. The bull went for the wife first and the husband second. The bull injured the wife and killed the husband. The wife was very injured and had open wounds. They said that she will survive and the injuries will heal. The husband was 54 years old and could not fight or do anything against the bull because he was an older man. The bull gored him around 20 times until there was no more. 

I believe that some animals these days are very dangerous and they will attack whoever they see unless they recognize the person such as a family member perhaps. If someone owns a farm or wild animals such as bulls, they should keep them locked away so people won't be scared to go up t the animal or pass by them. The farmer should have spent some money and should have bought a better fence so the animal could not have escaped from the space inside the fence. There is no reason why innocent people should have died for such a senseless reason.  Wild animals or untamed animals should be in cities or small towns, they should be on herding farmland.
