Thailand, Bull Fight, 1983

Thailand, Bull Fight, 1984 - Another surprise awaited me in Koh Samui, Thailand: a bullfight! I knew, of course, about bullfights with matadors, but I had never heard about bullfights where one bull fought another! Prior to the fight, the owners prodded the bulls in their testicles to anger them. The bulls' horns were embossed with gold-colored foil. In this photograph some of the spectators take to climbing coconut trees for safety.
