The role of the pastores
赶牛人
A large number of pastores (bull "shepherds") cover the entire bull run. They place themselves behind the bulls, with their only protection being a long stick. Their main role is to stop the odd idiot from inciting the bulls from behind, to avoid the bulls turning round and running backwards, and to help any bulls that have stopped or have been separated from their companions to continue running towards the bullring.
赶牛人在整个奔牛活动中发挥了重要作用,他们站在牛身后,手中仅拿着条长棍子保护自己,他们的作用是防止那些没有经验的奔牛者跑到牛身后,迫使牛反向奔跑 。他们还会驱赶那些停止奔跑或是跑落伍的公牛向最终目标——斗牛场前进 。
