Bull fighting did not begin in Spain. It has it's beginning with Bull Worship and Bull Sacrifice in Prehistory. It evolved over time until it was made a popular spectacle in Moorish Spain.

In Addition:

The bullfight as we know it today developed back in the 1700s in Spain but some form of bullfighting has been around since ancient times. Roman Emperor Claudius is thought to have introduced a form of bullfighting to Spain in the first century when gladiator fights were outlawed. In about 1726 Francisco Romero became the first to popularize fighting the bull on foot and is considered the first 'modern' matador.

In Spain bullfighting is considered a sport. However it is increasingly coming under fire for its brutality and cruelty.

Bull runs are in the same category but are still going strong.
