Charging Bull Weathervane

West Coast Weather Vanes

Bull Weathervane, Charging Bull
Click here for pricing
This
is a very
action oriented weathervane design depicting a Charging Bull. The
version featured in the photo was made in copper although we have made several
where we have gold leafed the bull’s horns for dramatic effect. The man who
originally commissioned this design is a stockbroker who is very much into the
“Bull Market”! We also offer several bear weathervanes so you could even order a
set of weathervanes to depict both a “Bull” and a “Bear” market!
On an entirely
different thematic track, we have talked with several potential customers about
transforming this into a Bull Fighter weathervane by adding a
Matador. The bull in this weathervane would lend itself perfectly
to Bull Fighting weathervane.
Cattle
(often called cows in
vernacular and contemporary usage, or kye as the Scots
plural of cou) are domesticated ungulates, a member of the subfamily
Bovines of the family
Bovidae. They are raised
as livestock for meat (called beef and veal), dairy products (milk), leather and
as draught animals (pulling carts, plows and the like). In some countries, such
as India, they are subject to religious ceremonies and respect. It is estimated
that there are 1.3 billion head of cattle in the world today.
Cows - Cattle are ruminants,
meaning that they have a digestive system that allows them to utilize otherwise
undigestible foods by repeatedly regurgitating and rechewing them as "cud." The
cud is then reswallowed and further digested by specialized microorganisms that
live in the rumen. These features allow cattle to thrive on grasses and other
vegetation
A Bull is an
adult male of various large animal species including moose, bovines (esp.
cattle), elephants, whales, seals, and sealions. An interesting fact about bulls
is that they are color blind. Thus, the common belief that bulls hate the color
red is untrue.
