.The yak is listed as Vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Its number one current threat is poaching. It is also losing its habitat to farmers, who use yak land for raising their livestock. A third problem yaks face is competition with their domestic counterparts, who are capable of spreading disease
Yaks are not extinct although they are an endangered species
Yaks are wild and sometimes tame depending how/where they were bought up as young if they was bought up in the wild then they would be wild, if they were bought up in captivity or around humans/man kind then the will be tame but they cann always turn suddenly on you.
Yaks typically live in small herds led by a dominant male. They are social animals that rely on the group for protection, foraging, and maintaining social bonds.
As of recent estimates, there are approximately 14,000 to 20,000 wild yaks remaining in the wild. Their populations have been declining due to habitat loss, poaching, and climate change. Conservation efforts are ongoing to protect their habitats and ensure their survival in the harsh environments of the Himalayas and Tibetan Plateau.
Wild yaks are native to the high altitude regions of the Tibetan Plateau and surrounding areas in Central Asia, such as Mongolia and parts of China and Russia. They are well-adapted to living in harsh, mountainous terrain with cold temperatures and limited vegetation.
Wild Yaks and endangered, domestic Yaks are not threatened
