Musk Ox, Bulls (Standing)
Musk Ox are, for most of the year, fairly placid and slow-moving. In fact, they stand around a lot. It's the rut that commands one's respect, as that is the time of year Musk Ox cease to be "tundra cows". Luckily, for most of the year, they are fairly easy to photograph. All one has to do is travel to the Barren Grounds of the far north, and find them! Pretty simple. Pack a lunch. You may be there a while!

I found this bull Musk Ox standing alongside the Dalton Highway at Ice Cut, Alaska. More commonly called the "Haul Road" here in Alaska, the Dalton Highway provides access to the pipeline and to the end of the road community of Deadhorse.
