Dear Sitahu, If hybrids are infertile, how is all this possible? (I'm not sure hybrids are always infertile, but let's just say they are... And your text says mules are barren...) That could explain why you don't see a lot of mentions of thol-log? I don't think I've ever seen even one! Does gseb mean 'stud'? Can't bovines interbreed every which way? Just a question, but I'm full of those. How are other things? Yours, Dan
ReplyDeleteDear Dan,
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for the comment. Typing the list is my first step, thinking about it comes later and hopefully a discussion about the list with the author of the rtsibs ri lo rgyus. Many greetings from the one who still searches for the exact meaning of sitahu.
By the way, the author says in his introduction that he has not much knowledge, shes yon sbyang 'bras med!
ReplyDeleteI found out that there are numerous ways yaks may be hybridized with other bovine varieties thereby producing very varied and cute "yakows." This site has such nice pictures everybody will be wanting to have one:

You can also google yakow or "yak hybrids" and come up with more.
