Can yaks live in the mainland?

No, this is determined by the living habits of yaks.

Yak likes cold environment very much, and it is also suitable for survival in low oxygen environment. The average annual temperature in this part of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is about 0 degrees, and the growing period of plants is only three months. In addition, because of the high altitude and thin oxygen in the atmosphere, this land on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is very suitable for yak survival.

Of course, in addition to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, there are also a few people in northern China. For example, in southern Xinjiang, although there is no advantage of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau as a high-altitude area, there are many mountains in southern Xinjiang, and the north keeps low temperature all the year round, especially in mountainous areas, so yaks can be raised in the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain. The only disadvantage is that there are not many environments suitable for yak growth in the north, so

In addition, there is basically no environment suitable for yak growth in China, and it is impossible to raise yak in the southern region south of Xinyang. This is because the living environment in the south is very unsuitable for yak to survive, and it is generally hot in the south. Even the average temperature in winter is more than ten degrees. If yak is raised in the south, it may grow slowly or get sick easily or even fail to survive.

Therefore, according to the living habits of yaks, it is impossible to breed yaks in the south.
