Did you know?
The yak is a long-haired bovine native to the Himalayan region, perfectly adapted to high altitude and harsh mountain climates through its thick, insulating coat and sturdy build. For centuries, yaks have been central to the cultures of Tibet, Mongolia, and Nepal—serving as pack animals, sources of meat and milk, and providers of fiber for textiles and rope. Their curved horns and calm temperament make them instantly recognizable across art and craft traditions throughout Asia.
