What is a "Gaur"?
A gaur is a large wild ox native to South and Southeast Asia. It is one of the tallest and largest species of wild cattle, standing up to 6 feet tall at the shoulder and weighing up to 2,200 pounds. The gaur has a dark brown or black coat, short, sharp curved horns, and a muscular build. They are herbivorous and live in small herds in grasslands and forests, primarily feeding on leaves, shoots, and grass. Due to habitat loss and hunting, the gaur is considered vulnerable and is protected in many areas.
