Question about farm full of bulls, and not cows, details below?

usually when i see a farm with bovine, its always cows, never bulls, well for the first time in my life, i seen a farm with pure bulls, why just pure bulls and no cows?
Answers:
Are you sure they are bulls? Most of the time you cannot have more than one bull in a confined area because they will fight each other. Are you are determining them to be bulls just because they have horns? If this is to be the case..both sexes can have horns.
Are you sure they are bulls not steers? Steers would be used for meat. Bulls would most likely be kept for their semen. Its extracted and frozen then used for AI.
It depends where the farm was what they are being kept for. I pass by several farms that keep bulls together in pastures. Would think they are breeding stock or could be available for sale or lease to breeders.
