The Heaviest Bull World Record

Three thousand, eight hundred and forty pounds
The record for the heaviest bull alive
Belonged to a Chianina named Donetto
At the Arezzo exhibit in 1955

Nobody in Italy could imagine
What it must have cost, just to keep him full
Three thousand, eight hundred and forty pounds
Now, tell me that's not a lot of bull!

I is a Taurus, and I loves the Pro Bull Riding, Dodge Bodacious was a big blonde champion bull, the most dangerous. I named my big yellow cab trike after him ;)
