5. Oh sure, yaks are great and all. But if you don't want a relapse...
Go with a badger.

8. They are mean little devils, I encountered one once when I
was about 8, in Yellowstone.

Scared me poopless.

10. The sublime beauty! The Zen-like calm!
The obvious wisdom in those deep, knowing eyes!


"The Yak"
As a friend to the children
Commend me the Yak.
You will find it exactly the thing:
It will carry and fetch, you can ride on its back,
Or lead it about with a string.

The Tartar who dwells on the plains of Thibet
(A desolate region of snow)
Has for centuries made it a nursery pet,
And surely the Tartar should know!
Then tell you papa where the Yak can be got,
And if he is awfully rich
He will buy you the creature --
or else
he will not.
(I cannot be positive which.)

....Hilaire Belloc
