INDIAN BISON (GAUR)
Gaur is the largest wild bovid alive today
Gaur (Bos Gaurus) is the largest extant Bovine of India,
native to South Asia and Southeast Asia. They
are largely confined to evergreen and deciduous forests. The western Ghats constitute of the most
extensive strongholds of Gaur. Due to
their formidable size and power, Gaur has a few natural enemies. Only the tiger and the salt water crocodile
have been reported to kill a full-grown adult.
There are several cases of tigers being killed by gaur too.
The
gaur is the State Animal of the State of Goa in India.
