Adds the shrub-ox to Minecraft! The shrub-ox (Euceratherium collinum) is an extinct genus and species of ovibovine caprine native to North America along with Bootherium (Bootherium bombifrons) and Soergel's ox (Soergelia mayfieldi). Euceratherium was one of the first bovids to enter North America. It appeared on the continent during the early Pleistocene, long before the first bison arrived from Eurasia. It became extinct about 11,500 years ago. It was formally described in 1904. It is possibly synonymous with Bootherium, although this is uncertain. Late Pleistocene shrub-ox remains are known from fossil finds spanning from northern California to central Mexico. In the East they were distributed at least into Illinois. Euceratherium was massively built and in size between a modern American bison and a musk ox. A specimen was estimated to have a body mass of 607.5 kilograms (1,339 lbs). On the basis of preserved dung pellets, it has been established that they were browsers with a diet of trees and shrubs. They seem to have preferred hilly landscapes.

The fur coloration lighter than the fur of the musk-ox (its closest living relative) is speculative and may not represent what the animal looked in life.
