Real-Life Alp Bulls:
Swiss Alpine bulls, like the one represented by Alp Bull Peter, are an integral part of traditional alpine farming. These bulls, often of breeds like the Braunvieh or Swiss Fleckvieh, are known for their strength and resilience, adapted to the high altitudes and rugged terrains of the Alps. Alpine bulls play a significant role in maintaining pastures, as well as in local cultural traditions, such as cow parades and festivals.
