That was a whole lot of excitement there with the bull. It reminded me of a scene from Wild Hogs...I have found our cows in America to be gentle. Then again, we do not have koalas, so they are not tested in such a way.

I am so glad you are still with us after testing the Big Bull.  The little Koalas are precious; I hope the cows don't get very many of them.  I don't understand how the little cute creatures could threaten their calves, maybe they seem dangerous to them.  Very picturesque story.

Funny, and I am glad it turned out well.  It is good to have siblings with adventurous spirits.

What a wonderful story. There is nothing children will not try when there are two or moe of them. I love this story. Just glad you both were safe.

I remember similer stories of camaraderie when I worked on my sisters ranch in my early teenage years, life seemed more dear there than in the city center...thank you so much for sharing this one Kabu.

Oh my, Dear Kabu!..:)

Good story, glad you and your sis escaped.. 
I used to love to tease the billy goats on my uncle's farm; till one of them started chomping on my shirt - I let him have it! The shirt that is, LOL. Got myself out of it real quick as the harder I tried to pull away the closer his teeth came to flesh.

You described this so well, I could see it all! And I would have soiled my panties, too! The protecting of the young makes sense as to why they might attact! So sad! sam

Giggle! I can picture you both running with panic.We had a similar experience when kids and Bird was chased by a billy goat. It breaks me up every time I think about it. I believe TAPS has both of us beat...she went after the really huge stuff!!!, LMAO!!

Great story, Kabu.  It reminds me when I was a child and Mom had taken us to the Zoo.  There was a big pen that contained two elephants (that also peed a lot, LOL).  One of them happened to be making loud elephant calls for some reason.  Mom decided to mock him and she was real good at screeching it out.  The elephant go real angry and ran to the fence and tried to tear it down with his trunk.  Scared Mom to death and we all went running off to another place.

You did a lot of wetting Kabu, but it could have been worse. I think it is the waving of cLoth that infuriates the bull next time you see one try a brown coat. I bet you can run if the need arises. Honestly I don't like bulls they always follow me down a hedge, well I am the other side. I think they should be kept in those little convenient flasks.
