Description
Description

The Domestic Yak (Bos grunniens) is a domestic cattle found across the Indian subcontinents of the Himalayan region and Mongolia/Siberia. It descends from the wild Yak (Bos mutus). Yaks are referred to as cargo animals because of their built bodies, strong legs, and well-rounded hooves. Because the Yak is domesticated, they often do not have their thick hair falling below their belly. Although wild Yaks are usually dark, blackish to brown, domestic Yaks can vary with rusty brown and cream coats. Yaks can withstand -40 degrees F (-40 degrees C) by huddling up together and having their calves in the center.
