Reference for Bava Kamma 41:17
לימא בבור ברשותו קמפלגי רב דאמר פטור קסבר בור ברשותו חייב

[That is to say,] only to the extent of the benefit [derived by the animal] but not for the actual damage done by it?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Supporting thus the view of Samuel but contradicting that of Rab.
