For bulls, it's more of a show of masculinity than anything. For cattle in general, many also believe it serves as the same function as a camel's hump; as a storage source for food, since these type of cattle are not only found and raised in the tropics and sub-tropics, but in the desert and arid areas as well where food and water is scarce.
