A women's forcados team catches a calf during a performance in their hometown arena at Benavente September 17, 2011. This team is the first comprising of only women to take part in the Portuguese bullfight in recent years, an event usually dominated by men. Wearing traditional stocking caps and red sashes, a forcado jumps on a bleeding bull's head as he charges it, while the seven other team members pile onto the animal until it is immobilised. Picture taken September 17.
