A pitiful death of buffalo man in a criticized buffalo fight in Vietnam

The photo depicts a buffalo man was being gored by a buffalo. The story started from a festival of buffalo fights the locality organises under a motto preserving the traditional culture. In fact, these activities represent brutal violence that has been criticised for years. However, some places in the northern Vietnam still retain cruel fights to make a profit. They falsify this activity would attract the attention of tourists. Indeed, tourists stay away from inhuman games.

Back to the distressing story, a buffalo man was severely injured in the accident and was hospitalised. After a while, he passed away, the main breadwinner of a family.

According to Ms Phuong, Do Thi (his wife), sitting beside a bed where his corpse was laid, related in tears after having trained other people's buffaloes for years, he purchased and trained a buffalo to participate in a contest. He was very proud of that day as it was the first day his own buffalo he made a great effort to coach. But it is also his fatal day.
