Farmer Arthur Duckett has a soft spot for his young bullock. Hopefully, the feeling is mutual - because "The Field Marshal" weighs 3,000lb.
The six-year-old Charolais, pictured with 5ft 8in Mr Duckett, boasts vital statistics that put him way above the common herd and on course for the record books.
At 6ft3 and 3,000lb, this bull is set to become the biggest ever in the UK. He is expected to pile on another 650lb in the next year alone.
That will take him past the current British record-holder, his former stable mate The Colonel, who stood 6ft 5in tall and weighed 3,500lb. He died in 2005.
He says The Field Marshal is "very good-tempered" but added: "When he gets angry he can do some real damage."
