Jallikattu

Jallikattu is a traditional bull-taming sport practiced in Tamil Nadu, India, typically held during the harvest festival of Pongal, in which participants attempt to grab the hump of a charging bull and hold on for a set distance or time to win prizes. It is deeply rooted in Tamil rural culture as a display of courage and a way to honor prized bulls, though it has also drawn controversy and legal challenges over animal welfare.
