7 year-old Dakota talks about working with oxen, carrying on a Nova Scotian tradition that dates back to the earliest days of farming and forestry here.
Good job young man! Stay with it, be the better example and share your knowledge, humbly and you'll go far. Might not be rich in $$ but there are better things than $$.
no it isnt better, it's human cultural prefference. if head yoke is badly designed (pulling the head up),then yes. but a well crafted yoke such as this NS yokes, no. not by a stretch. google tumpline and compare it with backpack and you will see the same principle on humans.
Neck and shoulders much better, this head yoke design, neither animal can move it's head freely. Cattle need to move their heads, the yoke is attached to their head and horns, one tries to move and the other has to move with it. Personally, head yokes are a bad design. Also load pulling puts strain on the neck muscles.
I love it, I absolutely love it, I'm jealous of that kid, I want my own oxen, they're beautiful. love this video.
Great Work 👍

@@bluemoondiadochi I'm french speaking, I don't fully understand so, do you have a preference. yoke on the forehead or on the neck.
