Grunt's convincing portrayal as a very small bison.When we went to the National Western Stock Show to meet and greet other yak owners/members of IYAK, there was a paddock with bison. They looked to be in their "teenage" stage of development; not yet big shaggy things. They were so tall and narrow that they reminded me of sunfish.
people keep asking me what you own yaks. I have NO idea what to tell them. ~ tyler
ReplyDeleteWe own yaks because:
ReplyDeleteA. They are awesome! Seriously, the have fantastic personalities and specialize in being adorable.
B. They are fibre animals. I am a crazy spinner lady, and my original intent was to get alpacas for my home-grown fibre. But, we met yaks and the hubby really liked them (far more than he liked alpacas), so we got the yaks, instead. Yak fibre is harvested by brushing them, rather than shearing them, so don't worry about pictures of bald yaks happening in the future.
okay. I thought it was some combination of awesome and fibre.
