Don't they have special accommodations for transporting large animals, it's not like my dog who can't reach the window to see out!

Though I still can't imagine how he gets the poor animal in and out of that small car...

Apparently he takes Howdy Doody (the bull) for a ride thru a local parade every year.

Sorry Rhi, didn't mean to derail your OP.....it's I finally figured out that a lot of video I watch seems to have the audio produced with non-human reporters.

And there are numerous posts on this story today - I mistakenly posted this video in the wrong state forum since it was reported on KHOU-Houston. Looks like this story has gone national.

Seems like neuro-science could tell us if the pleasure/pain brain areas of the bull were monitored.
