Gene from High Altitude Yak Protected and Repaired Myelin Sheath in Early MS Study A special gene that helps animals like the yak survive at high altitude could enable new treatments for multiple sclerosis after positive findings from a mouse model. The genetic mutation that enables yaks to live in environments with much less oxygen, and may hold the key to repairing nerve damage in conditions such as multiple […] The post Gene from High Altitude Yak Protected and Repaired Myelin Sheath in Early MS Study appeared first on Good News Network.

This Genetic Mutation Helps Yaks Survive at High Elevations. It Could Lead to Treatments for Nerve Damage in Humans Animals that dwell at high altitudes have adapted to cope with low oxygen levels, a condition that damages a vital part of nerve cells

"Some animals, including yaks and Tibetan antelopes, thrive at high elevations where oxygen levels are low. Researchers suspect that a genetic mutation in these creatures might hold a clue to treating certain nerve damage in people."

Yet Another Kavenaugh Stop #YAKS

Welcome to my new venture! I now own 9 yak heifer calves from a well-known breeder of foundation stock. They will become the basis of my own breeding herd. The calves will stay with the breeder through spring for weaning, vaccinations, etc. I just need a bull now!

Please never ride animals or have them pull carriages or carry loads for you.

Animals are not vehicles or transportation 🐘🐫🐎🕊🐃🦬

They are sentient beings with the right to be left alone and not be exploited 💚

Photo of a pack of five yaks and their handlers crossing a hanging simple suspension bridge several hundred feet in the air in the Himalayas, on the way to Mount Everest. A pine forest is around them, with no sight of the ground below.

Yaks and porters with waaaay more faith in that bridge than me.

There’s this place out in Mount Shasta, Ca, called “Yaks Shack.” They serve food there. It’s been months. I don’t remember what I had. I just remember it was a pretty good burrito.

If you’re ever driving up the 5 past Mount Shasta, it’s worth the quick detour.

The Truth About Farming Bisons, Buffaloes, and Yaks There are more cows and bulls than you think. When we use these terms, we normally think about two subspecies of the species Bos taurus (sometimes collectively referred to as “cattle”) that many…

The reality of farming bisons, buffaloes and yaks is not that different from the nightmare of farming the other animals people call “cattle”. 🐂

This is harder to get right than you'd think from the Microsoft marketing, even with copilot / gpt to hand.

In China, people are hiring ‘climbing buddies’ for big money. The more attractive they are, the higher the price | CNN Young Chinese men are earning almost twice the average monthly salary by hiring themselves out as “climbing buddies” to help visitors scale mountains. That’s raising some concerns.

Los #Yakshas son unos seres míticos en el hinduismo. Unos gigantes a los que también se les llama #Yaks y que están asociados con la protección de la naturaleza, tesoros y lugares sagrados. Por ello, se les emplea como guardianes en distintos templos y edificios 🛕
