Pronunciation: [jˈʌŋ bˈʊl] (IPA) 
The correct spelling of the term for a male bovine that has not yet reached sexual maturity is "young bull." It is pronounced /jʌŋ bʊl/. The initial sound of "young" is /j/ as in "yes" or "yellow." The second syllable of "young" contains the short vowel sound /ʌ/ as in "cup." The word "bull" contains a short vowel sound /ʊ/ as in "book," followed by the consonant sound /l/. Together, the word is pronounced as "yuhng buhl."
A young bull refers to a male bovine that is in the early stages of its development, typically ranging from one to three years old. This term specifically pertains to bulls before they reach sexual maturity and become fully grown adult bulls. Young bulls are recognized for their characteristic physical features, which include a well-built body structure with strong, muscular limbs and a developing neck and chest. They often exhibit energetic and lively behavior, displaying a level of desire for dominance within their herd.
In the context of farming and agriculture, young bulls are commonly raised for their potential as breeding animals or their value in meat production. Farmers and ranchers carefully select and rear young bulls to ensure they possess desirable traits such as good health, genetic quality, and physical strength, which are important for breeding purposes. Additionally, young bulls are usually kept separate from adult bulls to prevent aggressive behavior and maintain a stress-free and safe environment.
In natural habitats, young bulls may participate in "mock" fights with other bulls during play or as a means of establishing their dominance within the social hierarchy of their herd. Although they may engage in such behavior, these interactions generally lack the full intensity and aggression often observed among mature adult bulls.
Overall, the term "young bull" refers to a male bovine, typically between one to three years old, that is in a stage of development before sexual maturation and adulthood.
