10 BIGGEST BULLS IN THE WORLD

Meet 10 heaviest and largest bull races in the world. They are giant animals that easily exceed 1000 kg.

Cows belong to the Bovidae family of mammals and are found on most continents of the earth. Strictly speaking, cows are the female of the species and the males are called bulls. Collectively, they are called cattle. 

Scientists have now discovered genetic evidence that shows that cattle were first domesticated by humans more than 10,000 years ago. Early humans used them as work animals and for meat and milk. 

These studies have also shown that all the cattle on earth right now are descended from around 80 individuals who were domesticated from wild ox. This happened in the Near East – and the discovery was made following excavations at Iranian archaeological sites. The international team comprised scientists from the French National Centre for Scientific Research, the National Museum of Natural History in France, the German University of Mainz and University College London (UK) in Germany, and UCL in the UK.
