I think its is bulls urine.

Usually found in energy drinks.

Taurine isn't bull's urine . . . the kind found in energy drinks is synthetically made in a lab. (ehow.com explains the process)

The taurine in animal food is derived from skeletal and other parts of the protein they are using in their foods.

The rumor about the bull's urine began because taurine was first found in the bile of bulls (which is why the root "taur" is now used).

Categorically: no. Firstly, that's the wrong way around. Bull sperm is made up of different substances, including the acid Taurine.

Secondly, the Taurine that we find in food and drink products today is not extracted from any part of animals; who would want that job?! Instead, it is artificially made in laboratories.
