A The area is fenced, the cows are left there and anyone who wants to venture in comes in and challenges the animal. You can also stay outside the fence, watching the brave people race in front of the animals. It’s called Picaria das Festas da Cidade de Almeirim, which takes place from the 15th to the 23rd of June. The rental of the cows cost the municipality 9 thousand euros, a little less than the 10 thousand euros that will be spent in Vila Viçosa for the use of 15 fighting bulls in the start that takes place at the Festas dos Capuchos , In September.
