Bulls and also cows were observed using the same defecation places over and over again, and spreading the dung with their hind legs in the well known manner. Obviously this behaviour serves to mark the home range of an individual, which, however, often overlaps with that of a neighbour. We have observed cows, but not other bulls, using the defecating place of a bull.
