Eddie: "Yeah, I got the daughter in the clinic, getting cured off the Wild Turkey. And, the older boy, bless his soul, is preparing for his career."

Clark: "College?"

Eddie: "Carnival."

Clark: "You got to be proud."

Eddie: "Oh, yeah. Yeah, last season he was a pixie-dust spreader on the Tilt-O-Whirl. He thinks that maybe next year, He'll be guessing people's weight or barking for the Yak woman. You ever see her?"

Clark: "No."

Eddie: "She's got these big horns growing right out above her ears. Yeah, she's ugly as sin, but a sweet gal. And, a hell of a good cook."

How does it (Yak) compare to Buffalo?

======

it = 2 letters

Yak = 3 letters

Buffalo = 7 letters

I sincerely hope this answers your difficult question !!! '-))

Yup, if its not buffalo, its ostrich, and now its Yak. There is always some new/old creature that has escaped our attention for 5000 years that will just blow the doors of beef cattle.

Energy-saving, too.

There once was a young man named Max,
Who avoided the gasoline tax.
The reason, you see ...
Was 'His Vespa burned pee'
From his grandfather's herd of tame yaks.

You stole my line (almost). Wolves will acquire a taste for Yak meat, I am sure, and if the Yaks (Yaks?) are mean to the wolves they will have to be eliminated, of course. We cant have Yaks bothering wolves and grizzly bears now, can we?

Appears to me another Ponzi scheme for the agricultural community. Alpacas, ostriches, emus, beefalos and llamas come to mind. The press will give them free advertising and the initial yak breeders will make a fortune the next three years and then the bubble bursts. I, like you, have seen it over the past 30 years.

Goats...stick with goats. The most widely consumed meat in the world.

Boer Goats were left out. Boer goats were the last Ponzi scheme I saw with animals in this area.

Beefalo. Ostrich. You name it, all failed to catch on.

Yeah, because they are all inferior to beef in obvious ways. I don't want to compromise on cuisine quality for what is likely a marginal return on healthiness at best.

I think the only red meat "game animal" that I like as much as high-quality beef is high-quality elk.
