B2B (bull-to-bull)
A bull in Baringo district, Kenya, has taught other cattle to eat cactus (Opuntia megacantha) as fodder, after the thorns have been burnt off. According to a report from the International Development Research Centre, two years of drought had created a severe scarcity of cattle fodder when the staff of the local NGO Rehabilitation of Arid Environments heard about a cactus eating bull in the area. They bought up the animal and had him eat cactus in front of some 150 cattle of different herds.
