What's the difference??

What is the Difference with each animal??

People accept Equestrian sport horses easily but kick up a stink over Bulls and Horses used in the Rodeo arena??

I would just like to point out that in each photo each animal is in prestine condition, each has a rider on top of their backs and each has equipment straped to them?? There is no moral difference between each sport!! All the animals are just athletes doing their job, so why is bronc riding and bull riding so hard for some people to accept but Equestrian events such as show jumping not? When the principles and methods are virtuallty the sam.
