Did You Know - Professional Bull Riders Edition
10 Things You Didn’t Know About the Bulls of PBR
1. The American Bucking Bull is a specific breed
Bred specifically to compete, the bulls that compete in the PBR are products of an elite breeding program that breed for genetically superior bucking. A recognized breed of cattle, thanks to the PBR and the ABBI (American Bucking Bull, Inc.), there are 200,000+ animals alive with bucking bull genetics. Their lineage, like racing horses, can be traced a long way.
3. They have only one ride the entire event
One and done, bucking bulls have only one ride the entire night.
7. They eat like kings
Bulls are fed 15 pounds of high quality hay every day, and often times get B-12 complex vitamin shots and nutritional supplements to keep them healthy, happy and at the top of their game. The handlers make sure the bulls are hydrated, well fed and happy before any event.
