Favorite Bovine Species:

[LowlandGorilla4]

Hi guys how's it going? I was wondering what your favorite bovine is, mine is probably the cape buffalo or possibly American Bison but I want to know what yours is*:




**Bonus points if its a new species to me

 

[Rayane]

Gaur or Tamaraw, one is a massive beast the other one is a secretive nice little cow

 

[Pleistohorse]

I really like the Wild Water Buffalo.

 

[Onychorhynchus coronatus]

I think for me it would have to be the wisent / European bison.

I find them to be very majestic creatures in a way that the American species just doesn't match up to (the European bison seems less bulky and more graceful in some way).

I've seen them portrayed in the prehistoric cave paintings in caves in Spain and France which makes me somehow appreciate this animal even more. I also find the history of their conservation to be an interesting and epic story too.

So, yes, considering all of those things for me I would have to say the wisent is my favourite bovine.

My favorite is maybe the American Bison. I love their fur on their neck and head. They look cool to me I guess.

 

[HungarianBison]

My favourite is the Wild yak.

Mine's waving between American wood bison and African forest buffalo (I know, both are subspecies instead of species).

That's fine, both are cool

I remember watching a documentaries about them, back when I was around kindergarten/first grade they were my favorite animals and I knew pretty much everything about them

 

[TinoPup]

Ignoring Tragelaphus, Nilgai! Followed by saola and anoa.

One of my other favorites is the greater eland, I think they're such beautiful and cool animals. Watching them jump is quite the sight to behold

 

[Jungle Man]

I love Muskox! They are simply majestic, and I assume they are fluffy so if I had the opportunity, I'll definitely pet a Muskox. By the way, has anybody touched a Muskox? How does it feel like?

Unfortunately no, we don't have too many musk ox here in Michigan

 

[Valentinoamor]

I'd have to say European bison.

 

[AWP]

For Bovinae: bongo, beautiful animal. For Bovini: gaur.

@Jungle Man Musk ox isn't a bovine, it's a goat.

 

[Jake1508]

Anyone that tastes good!

 

[boro745]

My favorite would probably be the greater kudu, but if we're including all bovids, I think the Rocky Mountain goat

 

[TheGerenuk]

Depends on how you classify bovid.

Bovidae: Gerenuk
Bovinae: Either Bongo or Sitatunga
Bovini: African buffalo

 

[LowlandGorilla4]

@Jungle Man Musk ox isn't a bovine, it's a goat.

I remember reading that somewhere! I forgot until now

Then from what I've read you may be a fan of Eland
