Bullfighting is quite possibly the most well known traditions in Spain. Individuals from various pieces of the world come to see a matador (bullfighter) wave his red cape (muleta) before a grunting bull, who seems to see the red cape and charge furiously towards it. We have a comparative occasion in Tamil Nadu during Pongal time.
As children, we were advised by our folks not to remain before a bull when wearing a red dress, or something like that.
In any case, why red shading drives bulls mad?
Here is a major astonishment for you. Bulls are really partially blind for red and green. Bulls, actually like other steers, can't separate among red and green tones. However, have we not been informed that red shading makes bulls go frantic. For what reason does a bull blow its top and come charging?
It's not the shading, yet rather the development of the material that drives bulls so crazy. In addition, the bulls utilized in bullfights are from an extremely forceful variety and they're brought up in a manner that any unexpected developments will drive these bulls mad and make them assault.
In the event that the cape(red fabric) is of some other shading likewise, the bull will in any case charge at it. In this way, if a matador is wearing red and is stopping and another matador wearing some other shading (even white) starts moving before the bull, the bull will assault the matador in white – the person who is moving.
So for what reason is the shading red utilized in bullfights?
A red-hued cape is utilized simply as an issue of custom. From the 1700s, muleta or the red cape was utilized for driving a bull mad. Additionally, the red shade of the cape helps cover the blood of the bull as it is battled off by the bullfighter.
