The beauty, the charm, the elegance of the place that is Sankhuwasabha is privy to not many but to those who get the opportunity to lay eyes upon this land. While previous mentions have described and beheld this very beauty, today we speak of a lesser known fact or rather lesser know animal found in this region: The Yaks!
The yaks are one of the primary livestock reared in the region. Of various colors, sizes and breeds these yaks provide essential loving material namely milk, wool, etc. The bulky, nonchalant yaks of Sankhuwasabha can be found grazing across snow-laden pastures all across the district with their very young shepherds not far behind.
Talking to a fifteen years old Mingma Shangbo, said that, “I take yaks to the field in the morning and leave them there. They eat plants and grass from one field and move to another.”
