Unit 1 Lesson 1 Interesting Fact

Will a musk oxen attack another musk oxen?

The only time that musk oxen  fight among themselves is during breeding season. Then they fight just like a lot of other animals do. But they don't fight for dominance in the herd. They cjust fight for the right to breed. The rest of the time the whole herd lives together and dominance within the herd isn't a big part of their life. The older bulls are the leaders of the group.
