This is the terrifying moment a large bull attacks a university campus and challenges a security guard.

The incident took place in the La Salle Pedregal University car park in Gustavo A Madero, located north of the Mexican capital Mexico City, on Tuesday, 19th March.

The first piece of footage shows the large bovine charging into a boom barrier at the entrance to the University car park as a person hides behind it and tries to shoo it away.

The bull carefully takes a few steps back as the security guard swings wildly at it to scare it away.

The second video shows the bull in the car park as a man bravely tries to get it to move.

Local media reported that the security personnel at the University called animal specialists in to capture the large animal.

It was reportedly caught, although no details have been provided.

Local media said that it was currently unclear how the black bull arrived at the school.

Netizens saw the funny side, with one saying: “The bull was upset because they wanted to charge him for parking.”

While another joked: “Bull protests in the vicinity of La Salle Pedregal. An institution is said to house a large number of bullfighting fans.”
