Yakety YAK


There are five traditional herd animals in Mongolia: horses, sheep, goats, camels, cows/yaks. 

Today I'm posting my pictures of the yak as both Sim and I mistook this creature for a long haired cow!!  So if you are in doubt yourself, here's how they look!  They are quite timid creatures.



There's always a black "yak" of the family it seems.....Ignore the horse!

Close encounter of the yak kind
