The charreada or charrería is a competitive event similar to rodeo, which developed in Mexico based on the working practices of charros or working hands. The modern events were developed after the Mexican Revolution when charro traditions were slowly disappearing, and the competing charros often come from family lines with a history of taking part. A charreada consists of nine events for men and one for women, all involving horses, cattle or both. Some of the events in the charreada are criticised by animal advocacy groups, notably those that involve roping horses by the legs, and several states in the United States have banned horse-tripping. However, supporters of charreada say that the number of animals injured is minimal, and have begun to record statistical data to support their position.
