According to the sources, the bulls met their tragic end after consuming sweet corn crop which sprayed with poisonous pesticide intentionally. The bulls used to destroy the crops grown by the farmers in the area and such a bullish nature might have forced the land owners to spray poison to their crops with an intention to kill the cattle, sources said.
