Yaks

by Willow Clark

Book Overview

Yaks are long-haired relatives of the cow. They live in the icy Himalayas, the Tibetan Plateau, and in parts of Mongolia and Russia. For thousands of years, people have used domesticated yaks for milk, food, fiber, and fuel, as well as beasts of burden. So many of these animals have been domesticated that only a small wild population remains. Beautiful photographs and informative text welcome readers to discover the fascinating world of yaks.
