gaurArticle Free Pass gaur (Bos gaurus), one of several species
of wild cattle, family Bovidae (order Artiodactyla). The gaur
lives in small herds in the mountain forests of India, Southeast
Asia, and the Malay Peninsula. Larger than any other wild
cattle, it attains a shoulder height of 1.8 m (6 feet) or more.
It is heavy-bodied and typically blue-eyed and has curving
horns, a high ridge on the forepart of the back, and white
“stockings” on the legs. Bulls are dark brown or blackish, cows
and young reddish brown. Greatly reduced in numbers, gaurs
survive only in scattered herds in India, Myanmar (Burma), West
Malaysia, and Thailand. What made you want to look up "gaur"?
