Muskox are a lot tougher than we give them credit for. They rarely take shelter unless they're living in the boreal subarctic where they have access to trees in the heaviest of blizzards. Usually though, their very thick coat of hair, which is double-layered for both warmth and protection from the elements, as well as the advantage of living in a herd is enough to give them protection during inclement weather.
