    Why do some Bulls have rings in their noses?

    Question #17919. Asked by Socrates. (Apr 04 02 6:19 PM)


    John

    So that they can be tethered or led.

    Here in the UK bulls have to be licensed once they reach a certain age. It is I believe a requirement of the licence that a ring be inserted in the animal's nose, in order to control it in certain situations.

    The truth is--if a Bull becomes very angry, in an emergency, one may pull on the ring which causes the Bull to calm down and kneel.
