Prized Dinka bull.


Prized Dinka bull.

This bull is one of a couple hundred cattle that were abducted by Murle from Dinka. The Peace Committee in Gumuruk rounded them up and are holding them to return them to their rightful owners in Bor, once the Peace Committee in Bor reciprocates with cattle that have been stolen from the Murle. Apparently the owner of this bull was killed in the fighting because he held on to the bulls horns and would not let them go, so highly did he prize the bull.

Apparently the grass in Murle is not as good as in Dinka Bor, and so the cattle are not very healthy - quite skinny actually.
