The Baby Bullfighter

Michelito Lagravere Peniche, 11 years old, is the son of a bullfighter and a bullfighter himself. He just killed 6 bull calves in Merida, Mexico, to prove it.

Starting out this young he has the potential for a very long career, with the possibility of that career ending at any time. Bullfighters still die in the ring; during the time I lived in Spain, two full matadors, Paquirri and El Yiyo, were both gored to death by bulls.
