Is California on its way to banning rodeos? Behind the growing movement to buck the event

For those who admire a "western lifestyle," a good rodeo performance highlights the skill, bravery and strength of a talented cowboy or cowgirl — a rider deft with a lasso, in control of wild, bucking animals, and laser-focused on a chaotic, seemingly uncontrollable task at hand. It's this display of western grandeur, hard work, grit and sportsmanship that has likely made the Peacock series "Yellowstone" such a major hit. 

But for others, the rodeo is a horror show in which terrified animals are chased around an arena, kicked by strangers, tossed onto the ground with potentially bone-crushing impact — all while loud music is blared and dozens, if not hundreds, of people yell, scream and clap from the nearby stands.
