For some reason I find this crazy interesting. First of all that looks to be a bull that had his horns removed. If he still had his horns that fight would have been really short. I don't think those dogs even had much of a chance even with the bull not having horns. Bulls can weigh in at over 1000 pounds. Those dogs prob weigh like 60-80 pounds.
I want to know how the dogs got airborne. I wouldn't think the dogs would have gotten back up if it was a kick that booted them that high in the air. Maybe the dogs bit into the bull and the bull slung them around like in the pic where the dog is biting the bull's lip.
Funny, lions bite the lips of water buffalo to control them. I guess dogs know the technique too.

Not all bulls have prominent horns-several breeds have almost no horns.
The dog in the air probably had a mouthful of bull-lip a moment before being flung.
I didn't find any of the pictures "interesting," crazy or otherwise. It was very sad that any of these animals were in the predicament they were in.

Why?
They are related to wolves, jackals and the coyotes. Hunting in packs to take down larger animals is what they do.
Putting dogs in jackets, little shoes, and inside of a purse is sad. They were probably happier attacking a cow than sitting beside the chair of some over affectionate nutjob that tries to treat them as if they were human children, like say YDC.

Domestic dogs are less like wolves than most people think. Even when they go ferral they subsist on human table scraps from garbage and by killing small animals like rabits. The two dogs in the pictures were not ferral-they both had collars, indicating they were pets. They were starving and (acting cooperatively as dogs will) took on another animal, but one that was much too big for them. They didn't choose their prey properly because they were pets and had no real hunting experience-neither dogs nor wolves "know how to hunt" instinctively; they have certain behaviors, but need to learn how and when to use them.

If those dogs had been a bit smarter, they would have known the photographer would be an easier prey.

I've seen a cow do worse.
While I was in India, I saw a cow totally own a cat.

I can't tell, now. I thought they were fake but then I looked again and they look real. I can't be sure.

Give petty people just a little bit of power and watch how they misuse it! You can't silence the self doubt, can you?

That picture is really depressing. Poor animals . I can't imagine my dog being in that situation. And the bull was probably freaking out, too.

Cows/bulls are a lot harder than they look. Mine (a Dexter - half-sized breed) has knocked me (225 Lbs) off my feet with one of those head swings before now - and she wasn't even being angry.

I agree about how sad this is....
