I think that isn't quite as cruel as some of the things mentioned here, but I thought that it could be brought up.

I agree.
The horses that are supposed to be wild in the rodeos, aren't really wild after all. They are usually calm and nice horses, but they are jumping wildly because, like you said, their testicles are tightly tied together.
What comes to the cows they try to catch with their ropes... They prepare the cows by causing them pain like for example by twisting their tails, so they would run to the arena as fast as possible. The lassoing (don't know the English word... anyone can correct me here
) itself causes the cows horror of course, but beyond that, often also damages their muscles and causes them fractures.
