Four-Legged Gladiators: Indonesia’s Outlawed Tradition of Pitting Boars Against Dogs
In the village of Cicaringgang, Bandung, a local custom called dugong involves dogs fighting wild boars in an arena, a practice used historically for training hunting dogs and addressing crop destruction by boars. Despite a 2017 West Javanese government regulation outlawing it, the tradition persists under a different name, 'adu ketangkasan' or 'agility fight.' The event is popular, with dogs treated for injuries on-site, while injured boars are either slaughtered for meat or forced to fight again. Animal rights activists, like Nadya Andriani, condemn the practice as unethical.

This Town in Indonesia Celebrates a Good Harvest With a Massive Food Fight
In Cikareumbi, a village in Lembang, West Bandung, Indonesia, an annual food fight using nearly rotten tomatoes is held as part of the Ngaruat Bumi and Hajat Buruan ceremonies. This tradition, which began in 2012, aims to ward off bad luck and ensure disease-free crops. The event involves villagers dressed in bamboo armor engaging in a symbolic war dance before hurling tomatoes at each other. The festival originated as a response to low tomato prices due to excess supply, with the rotten tomatoes symbolizing misfortune. Village elder Nanu Muda emphasizes the festival as a gesture of gratitude for a good harvest.
