Everything about Ox
Common bovine draft and riding animal
An ox, also known as a steer or bullock, is a large bovine, trained and used as a draft animal. Oxen are commonly castrated adult male cattle, because castration inhibits testosterone and aggression, which makes the males docile and safer to work with. Cows or bulls may also be used in some areas. Wikipedia →
