Hola quién puede ayudarme a interpretar ésta expresión?

"Mark in thick thorn bush with the big old Martini Henry rifle bellowing and smoking, the recoil shaking his frail, old body as, like a black mountain, the buffalo bull came down upon them, blood mad and crazed with its wounds. " Gracias!

Hi, you might try:

sanguinario = bloodthirsty (think this word is better than "blood mad")

and enloquecido = mad, crazed

sounds like an exciting story!

ps if you still like "blood mad", than furioso or rabioso (furious, raging mad) and blood is sangre

I take the idea that the bloodiness is what is making the bull mad so using your 'rabioso de la sange' or 'por la sangre' - margaretbl, Feb 14, 2011
