Can someone please settle an argument and tell me if bulls "moo" as well as cows as I have been told that bulls only roar or snort?

Yes, only cows moo, bulls snort - when cross.
It would be a little worrying to hear a bull 'moo' - in depth counselling would be required.

Well SM, that's a pretty definitive authority.

Apparently both sexes of calves moo either out of alarm or as a request for food. If this is the case and bulls only snort, when do their voices break?

Bulls sometimes inject as well as snort.

Did you know that a Cow that has a new baby is much more dangerous then any Bull alive...

Bulls also "moo"
I've seen and heard them.
Anyway, "To err is human, to moo BOVINE!"

If you heard a mooing bull DB, then you were not looking at a bull - there is a considerable difference you know.
Bulls roar, snort or blare - the latter is a similar sound a cow makes when separated from her calf.

Perhaps I should rephrase my answer.
Bulls can make exactly the same noise as a cow.
If it happens to be given a different name, such as blaring, then so be it but it is the same sound as as a "moo".
And yes it WAS a bull.
He was actually quite excited at the time.
