Expo Mutum  
We arrived in Novo Mutum just in time to catch it’s famous agricultural expo, an event which draws people from all over Brazil.
We went to take a look at the prize bulls.
We were told that they are too valuable to use for meat so their lives will be dedicated to reproduction!
They did not seem to mind being touched.
They have fantastically flabby flaps of skin under their chins.
We also watched newly purchased cattle being marked with the symbol of their new owner.
We were not sure whether this was a sheep or a goat (but it’s definitely a male!)
