[17] [18] In 2000, Texas A&M University cloned a Black Angus bull named 86 Squared, after cells from his donor, Bull 86, had been frozen for 15 years. Both bulls ...
Humans have responded to this behavior by targeting these events in order to catch more fish, which have started to engage less in courting behavior out of fear.
