Musk-ox 2
The musk-ox is protected from the cold by a thick woolly
undercoat and long guard hairs. However, when extreme weather dictates the musk-oxen will
huddle together, protecting the calves and cows in a circular formation known as a phalanx. This
same formation is taken when the musk-ox is threatened. In the case of wolf packs it is quite
effective; in the case of a gun, the musk-ox is helpless. MORE!
