A herd of Yaks grazing the green pastures of Mulde Peak in Nepal while being surrounded by rhododendrons. The mist moves fast and covers the peak hiding the number of Yaks further away from our site. Yaks (Bos grunniens) are both domestic and wild animals found at the higher ranges of the Himalayan mountains. They have been domesticated for well over a millennia and are useful for a large number of reasons. While domestic yaks are found all over, wild yaks are endangered animals and now only found in remote regions of the Himalayas. Yaks are found anywhere from 3,200 to 5,400 meters and will not thrive at lower altitudes.
