muskox
french name: boeuf musqué

safari near Dombas in Dovrefjell National Park (Norway) with the organisation Mountain Adventures

*free animals!*

september 2008
middle of norway


"As members of the subfamily Caprinae of the family Bovidae, muskoxen are more closely related to sheep and goats than to oxen, but are in their own genus, Ovibos. é
- wikipedia [link]

Malgré son nom "boeuf musqué" il fait en fait parti de la famille des caprinés et donc plus proche de la chèvre :
"Malgré son aspect de bovin (qui lui vaut son nom dans plusieurs langues), c'est en fait un capriné aberrant, proche des souches primitives (takins, tahrs, serows) de l'Asie tropicale et subtropicale et de la chèvre des montagnes rocheuses de l'Ouest américain, mais adapté au climat arctique."
