Is anyone well informed of this as far as the bull's end.  I pretty much know how it goes from the "artistic" and "honorable fight/death" thing.  Is it true in the past bulls in the arena were 5-8 years old but now they are 3 years old?
Do they at least get to enjoy a wild free range life before the arena?  How are they treated right before entering the ring?  I pretty much know what happens in the arena (their neck muscles are weakened to make it harder to lift their heads)? 
How are their pre-arena lives different from the ones who end up in the slaughterhouse for meat on the shelves? Which has the "better" death?
Many thanks
