definition: A yak is a large, heavy mammal with long hair. Yaks look similar to bison. Yaks can live easily in mountain areas, and they are native to Tibet, Nepal, Central Asia, and China.
Humans raise yaks for their milk, fur, and skin. They also use them for carrying loads. There are still some wild yaks, but they are becoming fewer in number.
