There were two parts to the bull video. The first part is the bull getting tased. The next part is where the Taser current is turned off. The Bull then gets up, much angrier then he was before the Tase, and then violently charges the fence.
So there is a lesson to be learned from the Tasing. Now most people who are shot by the police know well enough to lay on the ground or else the police might tase them again or use other methods such as the nightstick/pepper spray/etc. Therefore, when an officer uses a taser most of the time they do not move and stay on the ground...a psychological stop because they believe the officer might use a greater force should they start moving.
However, when it comes to animals and non-officer encounters its much different. When the Taser current is turned off, then the possibility exists to have the mad-bull effect.
The civilian Taser has a 30 second time frame. You use that time frame to run, not walk, to get your pistol. Chances are when whatever you tased gets up, they will be loaded with adrenalin and coming at you stronger and faster then before. So the Taser is not really a weapon, but a device to give you a little more time so you can arm yourself with a gun.
Here is the other thing about the Taser. Its not a device that was meant to be used against older or weaker targets. If you tase that animal and it dies, then you might be held responsible through the civil courts.
