In "La Course Camarguaise" the "raseteur" attempts to pluck a ribbon from between a charging bull's horns The bulls are not killed or injured , but it's extremely dangerous for the men trying to get the ribbon . The raseteurs , all dressed in white ,crisscross the arena on foot calling out to the enraged bull to attract him .When a pursuit is initiated the raseteur tries to grab the ribbon without being injured and often has to leap up into the bleachers to escape
