Colombian President Gustavo Petro has enacted a law banning bullfighting, ending a practice that had been constitutionally recognized as part of the country's culture. In front of a crowd gathered at the bullring in the capital Bogota, renamed the Santamaria Cultural Square, Petro on Monday celebrated ending the "right to kill" animals for entertainment.
