Very nice photo Chris, and that Bull ain't shy at all.
It originates from Bos Primigenius,nowadays called Bos Taurus you can see that as it has triangle shape head and big widely spread horns. It is Highland bull if i am not mistaking.
Highland cattle are an ancient Scottish breed of cattle with long horns and shaggy pelts. The breed was developed in the Highlands and western coastal regions of Scotland, and breeding stock has been exported to Australia and North America since the 1900s. The breed was developed from two sets of stock, one originally black, and the other reddish. Today, Highland cattle come in a wide variety of colours.
Highlands are known as a hardy breed (most likely due to the rugged nature of their native Scottish Highlands), which will eat plants other cattle avoid. They both graze and browse. The meat tends to be leaner than most beef, as highlands get most of their insulation from their thick shaggy hair rather than subcutaneous fat. This coat also makes them a good breed for cold Northern climates.
Sorry for this long comment.
Very nice photo.

Jelena
