Steer wrestling
Steer wrestling, also known as bulldogging, is a rodeo event in which a horse-mounted rider chases a steer, drops from the horse to the steer, then wrestles the steer to the ground by twisting its horns. Like all rodeo events, there are concerns from the animal rights community that the competition may include practices that constitute cruelty to animals. The event also carries a high risk of injury to the cowboy.
==Origins==
Historically, steer wrestling was not a part of ranch life. The event originated in the 1930s, and is claimed to have been started by an individual named Bill Pickett, a Wild West Show performer said to have caught a runaway steer by wrestling it to the ground.〔(Classic Rodeo Productions: Events. Web site accessed February 8, 2008 )〕 There are several versions of the story, some claiming that he developed the idea after he observed how cattle dogs worked with unruly animals.〔http://www.texasescapes.com/ClayCoppedge/Bill-Pickett-and-Bulldogging.htm "Never another like Bill Pickett"〕
