Heck Cattle

Okay so apparently the whole "bread to fight" thing was a bit of an exaggeration, they were bread to resemble a now extinct breed of wild bull that showed up a lot in Greek mythology but most zoologist today agree they weren't even close to right.

Heck Cattle

Comrades, there can be only one solution to this threat. We must create the Heck Bear.

To combat the Heck Bear we'll have to create the Heck Badger.

Did they really breed them to fight? I thought it was part of the Nazis "Aryan" heritage bullshit.

This is also why Germany now has a wild raccoon population that is taking over Berlin, nazis just don't get that raccoons will always outsmart them.
