N.B:
A Miura bull is a Spanish fighting bull bred from the lineage of the Miura Cattle Ranch (Spanish:
Ganadería Miura), located in the province of Seville, Spain. The ranch originally belonged to Don Eduardo
Miura Fernández, and is known for producing large and difficult fighting bulls. A Miura bull debuted in
Madrid on April 30, 1849. The Miura line traces its roots to five historic Spanish bull breeds, namely the
Gallardo, Cabrera, Navarra, Veragua, and Vistahermosa-Parladé.
