[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1504961, member: 14585"] The biggest I've seen in person was a 3,100 lb Brown Swiss Bull at Select Sires in the '80s. He's the only 3,000 lb bull I ever saw (saw a 2,900 pounder once) and this boy looks like he'd eat his lunch. Age claims are generally disputed, seems every researcher wants to claim oldest to aid/increase research money. It's been long established mankind started as hunter/gatherers and extensive cultivation/domestication got going in full swing with the Bronze Age in 3300 bc. Small food plots and herds were kept several hundred years prior 4000 bc. Rice was cultivated by the Chinese in 5700 bc before that it was gathered, beyond that it's mostly speculation. But seems most seeds were gathered and not cultivated before then and I would expect animal domestication to fall inline with the history of cultivation. [/QUOTE]
