FUNDACIÓN, MAGDALENA, COLOMBIA – AUGUST, 2025 Tragic incident occurred in the city of Fundación during the traditional Corralejas festival. A 35-year-old Yovanis Márquez attempted to jump over a bull but misjudged the distance and struck its horn. He suffered a severe neck injury and was transported to the hospital in critical condition, where he shortly afterward died.
Although Corralejas is a long-standing tradition that many people cherish, such incidents are not uncommon and spark debates not only about human safety but also about the treatment of animals.
