Forest Bull (Ethiopian Bull)

Forrest cattle resemble their smaller normal- sized relatives. They can grow to a length of 20 feet and weigh up to 6,000 pounds. Humanoids often hunt them for the value of their pelts as well as the copious amounts of meat they can provide. A single animal can feed a village for weeks.

A breed of ferocious, red cattle from Ethiopia. Their hides were believed to be able to withstand any weapon.

This giant bull is as long as at least three humans are tall. Its fur is red and unkempt. Long up– curving horns jut from its head.
