In the Twelve Labors of Hercules, which bull did Hercules capture on Crete?

The Cretan Bull was the bull Hercules captured during the Twelve Labors.

The bull had been sent to King Minos of Crete by the sea god Poseidon. Minos was supposed to sacrifice it, but he kept it instead because of its extraordinary beauty. Poseidon then caused the bull to become wild and destructive, according to the mythic tradition.

Hercules crossed to Crete and subdued the animal. Accounts vary about how he accomplished this, but the central point is that he captured it alive and brought it back to the Greek mainland. Eurystheus later released it, and the bull continued its destructive wanderings.

The animal is closely connected with the Minotaur story in later retellings, but the Cretan Bull and the Minotaur are not the same creature. After its release, the bull was eventually associated with the Marathonian Bull, which Theseus captured in a separate heroic episode.
