The muskox: Animalia Chordata Mammalia Artiodactyla Bovidae Caprinae Ovibos Moschatus. This creature is covered in fur, except on its lower legs. Its horns curve out in an odd shape, going in half a circle and then out in a spiral. The male muskox emits a musky odor, akin to one from a musk deer, a muskrat, or a crocodile. It is prized by hunters for its fur and musk glands.
