Yak - Jiuzhaigou - China



The yak is a precious animal to the Tibetan. Beside the milk, fibres and meat obtained from them, they are also used to carry goods across mountain passes and draw ploughs. On the Tibetan plateau poor in trees, their dung is used as fuel. The milk is often made into cheese and butter, which goes into the butter tea that Tibetans love to drink.
