00:00Do you know that in some parts of the country
00:01there are traditional fiestas that challenge the imagination?
00:04In Majates, Bolívar, there was a creative solution
00:07that combines tradition and respect for life.
00:10Replace the toro of the corralejas
00:11by people disfrazed from animals.
00:13This way, from the local alcalds,
00:16maintains emotion and adrenaline,
00:18but without putting in danger to anyone.
00:19However, the Majates is not the only case.
00:22In the Corregion of Caracol, in Sucre,
00:24after the 20th of January,
00:25the inhabitants are gathered to enjoy,
00:27cut their legs and arm the redondel.
00:30In a first time, they eligen to the farmers
00:31and each one select their best toros,
00:34who are young people who overpassed 25 years old.
00:37These examples reflect the efforts of the authorities
00:39to explore new ways of celebrating their fiestas with empathy.
00:42This search of alternatives
00:43is a special relevancy during the holidays of December and Enero,
00:47when the tradition comes with creativity.
00:50In Colombia, the corralejas have generated an intense debate,
00:52while some of them consider a fundamental part of their identity
00:55and ask that they are regulated, but not that they are prohibited,
00:57others criticize them by the maltrato animal
00:59and ask that they are done,
01:00as it happened with the corridas of toros,
01:03becerradas, novillas, rejoneos
01:04and tiendas in the middle of this year.
01:06This contrast reflects the need to reflect on
01:09the impact of these practices in the environment
01:11and in our society.
