They have really hard horns and very hard feet. Bulls use their horns to fight. They have really soft hair. They are really big animals.

Bulls often like to get into fights. They fight with their horns Sometimes they keep on fighting until one of them dies . They make eye contact when they want to fight. Bulls charge with their horns. Bulls live in the open land and near forests. The farmer uses the bull's fur to make leather coats. Bulls protect themselves by staying in a herd or with other cattle. They were tamed for farming. They were used  for their meat for eating. Boy bull's skin is used for leather shoes or warm clothes.   By Faye Letrina Taunuu.

The Chatham Islands

The Chatham Islands

20th March 2014

When  the Polynesians came from New Zealand to the Chatham  Islands they had to adapt or change their  way of doing things.

Firstly when they came to these Islands they couldn't  grow  their veges because they would die fast because of the coldness, so they had to eat a lot of fish and paua .The  Moriori people built a new type of boat.They used bundle of reeds which made the floor and sides of the waka. The kelp helped the waka float. The two runners were shaped like bull horns and were made out of wood. The two pallet runners on the bottom of the hull formed the backbone of the waka.
