Holstein bulls, as well as other dairy bulls are dangerous. They are unpredictable and at 2000lbs are very strong. A review of death by bulls in a 4 year period in the early 2000's in the Midwest tells me that complacency on the part of the handler played a part. Bulls can be docile and normal and well behaved for a year and then, one day stomp or butt the farmer or stock handler to death. Raising them as calves and trying to treat them as pets has not altered their unpredictable violent natures.
They are not pets, they cannot be reasoned with. For many farmers the right choice is artificial insemination. It lessens the danger and can provide more genetic diversity to the dairy herd.
