What is "bull creek"

Bull Creek may refer to:

Bull Creek is one of the tributaries that feed the Texas Colorado River, United States, from the Texas Hill Country. The creek passes through some of the more scenic areas in the Austin region and forms a greenbelt that is the habitat for many indigenous species of flora and fauna. It runs beneath steep slopes and benches surfaced with shallow clay loams that support ashe juniper, escarpment live oak, mesquite, and grasses.

The creek begins in north central Travis County (at ) and flows approximately southeast through Austin to Lake Austin, where it merges with the Colorado River (at ).

Bull Creek is flanked by areas of the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve.

Bull Creek is a tributary of the Allegheny River in Allegheny and Butler counties, Pennsylvania in the United States.

Bull Creek is a tributary of the Los Angeles River in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles County, California.

The creek rises in Bull Canyon on Oat Mountain. After leaving its canyon, it is encased in a concrete flood control channel, wherein it runs south from Granada Hills though North Hills, Van Nuys (including its airport), and Lake Balboa. South of Victory Boulevard, the river reverts to a free-flowing stream and joins the Los Angeles River inside the Sepulveda Dam Recreation Area. This section has recently been restored under a federally funded ecosystem restoration project, in part to protect the important riparian habitat.

In 1971, on the morning of the Sylmar earthquake, residents of Granada Hills, Northridge, North Hills, and Van Nuys who were living between Balboa Boulevard and the San Diego Freeway were evacuated after the Van Norman Dam nearly broke. However, a great flood down the banks of Bull Creek was averted.

Bull Creek is the largest Eel River tributary drainage basin preserved within Humboldt Redwoods State Park.

Bull Creek is a stream in Pennington County, South Dakota, in the United States. It is a tributary of the Cheyenne River.
