VATICAN’S VIEWS
Bull Fighting Condemned
<N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright >
VATICAN CITY, Mar. 10. A Vatican publication yesterday condemned bull fighting and pigeon shooting as “useless cruelty to animals."
The Vatican weekly, “I'Osservatore della Domenica,” also said the Roman Catholic Church approved tests on animals and vivisection, but encouraged researchers to reduce the suffering of the animals as much as possible. It said laws punishing those who maltreat animals or use brutal methods in slaughtering them are “in perfect harmony with Catholic morals and receive all the backing of the Church."
