A teenage bullfighting enthusiast celebrates victories in Bosnia
- Fifteen-Year-Old Junuzovic celebrated her bull Cobra's ninth victory during a bullfighting event last Sunday near Bijelo Polje, central Bosnia.
- Junuzovic trains Cobra daily through long walks and preparation rooted in Bosnia's two-century tradition of relatively bloodless, natural bull dominance contests.

- Junuzovic's success as one of few female trainers and Cobra's ongoing wins highlight evolving participation in this traditionally male-dominated Bosnian bullfighting culture.
