Forest Bull

Forest Bull, also Ethiopian Bull and Ethiopian Forest Bull, is an animal from Medieval bestiaries. According to Pliny the Elder,[1] they were a breed of ferocious, red cattle, twice as large as normal cattle, from Ethiopia. Their hides were believed to be able to withstand any weapon. Like the Yale, their horns could swivel in any direction.
