There is traditional donkey race held in early August on the island of Ugljan, near Zadar. The winning donkey was not given water for 2 days in order that he runs faster (being thirsty). The locals did not object to this, but some tourists protested (and rightly so!)

There are also donkey races held in the village of Kukljica (also near Zadar). There was a big festa there yesterday. My grandmother was from there. I didn't know that they let the donkeys go without water for so long though, that is unecessarily cruel.

What about Pamplona Bull Run, this is even more cruel!
