Black legend of a bull called Mouse grows with second death
Gory fame means 'Ratón' is a popular draw at town festivals in Valencia region
Ratón (Mouse), a 10-year-old, 500-kilo bull took a second life on Saturday night during festivals in Xàtiva, Valencia, when a 29-year-old man was gored to death.
The man, who was reportedly drunk and had already been dragged out of the ring once by standers-by, tried to rise to his feet after the attack, but collapsed and was hauled from the ring by several other festival goers. He died shortly after.
Ratón's deathly fame began to spread back in 2006, when he gored a 54-year-old man to death in Sagunto. Surprisingly, from that point, requests for an appearance from Ratón began to pour in from all over the region.
