Once the matador begins his passes with the muleta he has 15 minutes to make the kill. A warning Trumpet is sounded after 10 minutes. If the bull is still alive after three more minutes a second trumpet is sounded. After two more minutes the final trumpet is sounded and the bull must then be return to the corral to be killed there. It is a great dishonor to the matador who has failed to do his job.
