At the neck, chest, and rear, a muskox's hair can be up to 3 feet long.
Muskox live in the Arctic.
Muskox stay in herds with other muskox and don't like to share their territory with any other animals.
Muskox got their name from the strong odor given off by males. This musky odor is used to attract females during mating season.
The muskox, or its relative, is thought to have migrated to North America between 200,000 and 90,000 years ago; the same time the woolly mammoth lived.
Muskoxen are more closely related to sheep and goats than to oxen.
Both male and female muskoxen have long curved horns.
