Ox logging using a single yoke Highland cattle 2017 02 15

The young Highland Cattle ox Hector logging firewood from the forest. Hector is only 1,5 year old and he likes very much going out and work in the Wood. we dont train him to hard and he works only for a very short time. He understands the commands go, stand, back turn left and right, but sometimes it takes a while Before he starts.

From Oban Scotland first time Ive seen anyone making use of these beautiful beasts other than tourists taking pictures of them-looking good well done! Give my regards to Hector Scotlands too hot for him these days...Angus

Working fluff
Domestication is and will be always underrated

Beautiful young ox. I've always heard highlands were a bit stubborn, but your guy looks great. I have a Brown Swiss single ox. He is sweet tempered, huge, strong, but slow.

Probley when he acts up he yells him , you dumb ox your stubborn as a mule !

Should put a rubber end cap on the pokie thing. Ball shaped in different colours will make everyone go: ahhh, how cute.

They’d DO LOVE to have a little job to go to 💕

Fluffy 🥰

He is still learning and not being worked hard.

Why the need of an uncomfortable wooden yoke? Jus right there on its hair- skin.
Another stuff could be more suitable and easier to pull or bare at last.
Highland cattle are very nice

Nice looking cow, not much of a load though. 👍

[@Dollapfin]

I do admire the use of the cow instead of killing it. Coulda loaded 'im up a bit more. A tractor would be essentially useless in this situation. Even an offroad vehicle.

Hey beef is good too

@@judy3460 Have you given a cow your attention and care before? They drink 30 gallons of water a day... they're better off making compost and managing property!

That thing looks like a dog. The world's largest sheepdog.
