A whole lot of bull

This statue stands in the main street of Quairading in Western Australia's wheatbelt area. Isn’t this a magnificent specimen of a bull? Look at the fire in his eyes! It wasn’t until I got close to him that I realised he’s been created from scrap metal. But hasn’t it been well done?
I hate to be picky but this bull is pacing, meaning that both right legs are back and both left legs forward. Cattle don’t run like that. The limbs move diagonally so right foreleg and left hindleg move forward together followed by left foreleg and right hindleg.
I wonder why the creator did this. Maybe he/she just doesn’t understand cattle very well. It’s still a very powerful creation.

You guys have a whole lot of specimen that can kill a person. You think a little bull is going to scare me off. Giant spiders, lizards, and Crocodiles sure, Now we know why Australia does not have a immigration problem, but to be fair a little bull, Can I self deport to Australia. Texas has big bulls and they hate punk rockers.

If you once came to Australia, you'd never want to go home.

The proportions are excellent I think. It is very realistic.

It is certain that the creator didn't know how a bull's limbs moved when they were pacing.However so did I.
