I wander, like Poli, about the sacred caws in India. Maybe the sacred ones are the caws, aren't they.

Poli, in Pamplona, "los mozos" run before the bulls, but later they go to the "plaza de toros" to be fighted (toreado) and killed after great sufferings.

Si vas a la fiesta del vino, mejor que sea de color morado.
Si vas a la Tomatina, mejor que sea de color rojo.
Si vas a la fiesta del agua, lo mejor es un bañador.

But cows are not involved in this sport but bulls, cows are genarally calm i guess :)

Can I use "perder" which means to lose instead of brincar.
I want to say "How can I "miss" Indian bull fight..."

Thank you a lot for the alternate way of saying this. (as well as the
straight-forward way.)
Raji,
I think you could say echo de menos la corrida de toros or extraño mucho la corrida de toros

@Raji's:

@Poli: "Echar de menos" and "extrañar" are also "to miss" but in the sense of longing/wanting to see someone again, as in "I miss you dearly" = Te extraño tanto or Te echo tanto de menos.
