Can bullocks act aggressively when in a group

My husband and I went for a walk along a footpath and encountered a group of bullocks. As we walked near to them they all looked at us and then came walking towards us in a group which felt very threatening. i actually ran like mad to the next field, but my husband was calmer and walked away slowly. All the bullocks walked behind him some in a group and some in single file. Even when he got to the next field they continued to walk along the hedgeway following us, and one bullock actually got through causing us both at this stage to leg it to the next field ! I found the whole experience very frightening and feel they were very intimidating. We didnt have a dog with us and would like to ask if this is usual behaviour for these animals. Please help
