tame belled cattle
This is from my personal experience watching a bloodless bullfight in Lisbon. The "gado manso" come in at the end with bells around their necks and guide the injured bull out of the ring. I think they are usually younger steers.
Example:
... were gathered a group of six fighting bulls, black, or black-and-white, with the twenty tame belled cattle who served as their custodians. ...
