Now that the Han Tribe had obtained such a hybrid draft breed, they should have been satisfied. All they needed to do next was stabilize the breed. But at this very moment, the Han Tribe acquired a third type of cattle.
Speaking of this, they had to mention the Grassland Wolf Tribe, which had once fought a battle with the Han Tribe before later joining Modun.
Although the Grassland Wolf Tribe had "grassland" in its name, they were actually a nomadic tribe living in the coastal highlands in the southwestern part of the grasslands. They did operate on the grasslands, but spent most of their time in the mountains. Moreover, the cattle they raised were different from the cattle commonly found on the grasslands. The Han Tribe called this kind of cattle Highland Ox.
This Highland Ox was medium-sized, with a pair of fairly large horns on its head that grew in a curve toward the upper rear. They were not sharp, however. Its average shoulder height was around 1.7 meters, making it just slightly larger than Grassland Ox. Its coat was blue-gray, like stone, so it was also called Great Green Ox or Rock Ox.
It also had one particularly striking physical feature: its shoulders were exceptionally high, clearly standing a great deal taller than Grassland Ox and Forest Ox, making it look almost humpbacked. Someone who did not know better might mistake it for a single-humped camel. Of course, that was an exaggeration, but the resemblance was indeed quite obvious.
The Highland Ox's advantages were also extremely prominent. Perhaps because their living environment was relatively harsh, these Highland Ox were especially tolerant of coarse feed. Not only could they eat shrub leaves and the like, they could even chew thorns. They truly were not picky eaters at all.
