In Which There Is No Such Thing As Cows

You guys, in World Square in the City there is a statue of a bull. Not a Minotaur, or any particular Bull (Zeus jonesin' for Europa or something), just a bull.

There's a plaque next to it which is pretty long, explaining the significance of the statue, but I've never gotten much past the 5th word, because the 4th is such a doozy.

Checkit: "The Bull, a mythological beast..."

No.

There is a steak restaurant not 20 metres from this plaque. I love this sort of thing. Dumb at it's finest.

Perhaps by "The Bull" they meant this particular bull? And maybe the rest of the plaque tells of a legend about how at the resurrection of the economy after The Great Financial Crisis, The Bull will charge down World Square?

Maybe, but then, surely, "bronze" or even "poorly-sculpted" would have been better terms that "mythological". Still, I think it's definitely our best bet so far.
