Summaryedit

Description
English: Yak near Yamdrok lake, Tibet.

It is a long-haired bovinae found throughout the Himalayan region of south Central Asia, the Tibetan Plateau and as far north as Mongolia and Russia. The Tibetan economy is dominated by subsistence agriculture. Due to limited arable land, the primary occupation of the Tibetan Plateau is raising livestock, such as sheep, cattle, goats, camels, yaks, dzo, and horses. The Tibetan yak is an integral part of Tibetan life.

(Used in a small exhibition in Stockholm, at the World Water Week, rising awareness about climate change in the Himalayas. Original title was: "Tibet-5812")
Deutsch: Yak in der Nähe des Sees Yamzhog Yumco (Yardrog Yutsho) im Kreis Nagarzê, Regierungsbezirk Shannan, Autonomes Gebiet Tibet, Volksrepublik China.

Diese langhaarigen Bovinae findet man überall in der Himalaja-Region in Süd-Zentralasien, dem Hochland von Tibet und bis weit in den Norden in der Mongolei und in Russland. Die tibetanische Wirtschaft ist von landwirtschaftlicher Selbstversorgung dominiert. Wegen der begrenzten Menge landwirtschaftlich nutzbaren Bodens ist die Hauptnutzart des Tibetischen Hochlandes die Viehzucht von Schafen, Rindern, Ziegen, Kamelen, Yaks, Dzo (Kreuzung aus Yak und Rind) und Pferden. Das tibetische Yak ist ein integraler Bestandteil des tibetischen Lebens.
