GAUR
The gaur also called the Indian bison. The gaur is a strong and massively built species with a high convex ridge on the forehead between the horns, which protrudes anteriorly, causing a deep hollow in the profile of the upper part of the head.
The gaur has a head-and-body length of 250 to 330 cm (8 ft 2 in to 10 ft 10 in) with a 70 to 105 cm (28 to 41 in) long tail, and is 142 to 220 cm (4 ft 8 in to 7 ft 3 in) high at the shoulder, averaging about 168 cm (5 ft 6 in) in females and 188 cm (6 ft 2 in) in males. Males weigh between 1400 and 2200 pounds. It's the largest species of wild cattle in the world, bigger than the African buffalo.
Due to their large size, gaurs do not have a lot of enemies. Tigers and crocodiles and humans are their main predators. Gaurs live in a herd composed of usually 8 11 animals. Gaurs live in matriarch, which means that group has a female leader.
