Interesting photo.. Are these animals Oxen or steers? #1537591

Hi Arthur,

Those are considered oxen, because they are trained to pull. Basically, they are the same as steers. #10779445

Fantastic take.

You can feel the strength. The detail on the Oxen legs and faces is quite dramatic, shows their effort
