Endanger Musk Ox

 We can find  Musk Oxen mainly in Europe, northern Canada and Greenland. They have large heads, short necks and legs. Their weigh are extremely huge just in the size of a bull up to about 880 pounds. Both male and female have up to 2 feet horns. Their face is further covered by short hair. They have long shaggy brown hair that cover the whole body that reach nearly up to their feet and a short tail. They have a thick layer of wool which they shed during the summer season. This wool will be collected by the Eskimos to make a fine cloth, resembling cashmere. Musk Oxen travel in herds of 20 to 30. When attacked, the adults will face the outside and use their sharp horns as weapons against their enemy. Musk Oxen have become endangered due to the excessive hunting by man for food and sport. Their habitat also have been destroyed by human activities.
