Shocking video has emerged of two bulls colliding in a fatal clash of heads at an arena in northern Spain.
The distressing accident occurred as the two half-ton animals were let loose in front of crowds at Sanguesa in Navarra.
The bulls appeared to have suffered an instant death from the force of their impact after colliding head-on and keeling over on their backs.
The incident happened as they were let loose in the ring after arriving from a farm near the city of Avila further south.
They were due to be put to the test against a matador on Saturday before their untimely deaths.
Sanguesa is currently celebrating its annual festival, during which revellers sprint in front of bulls through its streets like in nearby Pamplona's famous San Fermines.
One critic of the blood sport said on social media: 'At least this spared them from being tortured slowly.'

This latest incident follows a string of high-profile bull fighting deaths across Spain.
In July professional bullfighter Victor Barrio, 29, from Segovia was fighting in Teruel, Aragon, in eastern Spain when a bull speared him through the chest.
The matador was taken to hospital unconscious but doctors could not do 'anything' to resuscitate him and save his life.
That same month a mother-of-two died after she was gored by a heifer at a festival she was attending with her husband and one of her children.
Sofia Lopez Gonzalez had tried to escape the animal behind railings after it was let loose in the streets of Moratalla in Murcia in south east Spain.
But the 47-year-old was caught on its horn and suffered a fatal injury to her abdomen. She died a few hours later in hospital.
