Musk Ox!

The Musk Ox was considered extinct in Alaska until it was reintroduced in 1930. In the 1960's a man named John Teal decided to try and domesticate these animals because of their extremely warm fur called quiviut. We went to the only Musk Ox farm in the world where they are continuing Teal's work actively trying to domesticate this still-wild beast. 








Here's some video I took.
