The vaquejada is a sport typical to the Nordeste region of Brazil, in which two cowboys ("vaqueiros") on horseback pursue a bull, seeking to pin it between the two horses and direct it to a goal (often consisting of chalk marks), where the animal is then knocked over. The city with the largest vaquejada in the world is Serrinha, in Bahia state. The Supreme Court's decision has national coverage.

  • The vaquejada is a sport typical to the Nordeste region of Brazil, in which two cowboys ("vaqueiros") on horseback pursue a bull, seeking to pin it between the two horses and direct it to a goal (often consisting of chalk marks), where the animal is then knocked over. On October 6, 2016, the Brazilian Supreme Court ruled that the vaquejada is illegal and against the Brazilian Constitution. The subject came into matter when the Government of the State of Ceará approved a state law regarding the practice. The General Attorney appealed against it to the Supreme Court, stating in the lawsuit that the animals where treated with cruelty. In its favor, the Government of Ceará sustained that it was a cultural event and represented an important part of local economy. According to the Government of Ceará, the vaquejada creates over 200 thousand jobs. The city with the largest vaquejada in the world is Serrinha, in Bahia state. The Supreme Court's decision has national coverage. (en)

Muito popular na segunda metade do século XX, passou a ser questionada a partir da década de 2010 por ativistas dos direitos dos animais em virtude dos possíveis maus-tratos aos bois. Em decisão proferida em 6 de outubro de 2016, o (STF) Supremo Tribunal Federal considerou inconstitucional uma lei cearense que procurava disciplinar a modalidade esportiva como um evento cultural, sob o argumento de que manifestações culturais não se sobrepõem ao direito de proteção ao meio ambiente, consagrado no artigo 225 da Constituição da República. Seguindo-se a decisão do STF de tornar inconstitucional a vaquejada, o Congresso aprovou emenda constitucional permitindo a prática da vaquejada e definindo alguns direitos e deveres a serem seguidos, visando, também, o bem-estar animal.
