Banteng breed

 


Is there no end to the sheer craziness of Australian fauna?! Come and meet (or bow hunt) the scrub bulls! 

Apparently, some "bantengs" (the name of this particular bovine species) were introduced to Australia in 1849 by the British Army. One year later, the 20 or so specimens were abandoned and went feral. Today, there are 10,000 of them! 

Bow hunting an aggressive scrub bull sounds nuts, but the matie in the clip above does it just fine. Maybe he´s a killer koala at heart, who knows? :D
