Musk oxen have a strong odor primarily due to the secretion of a substance called musk, produced by males during the mating season. This musk, which is used to attract females and establish dominance, can be quite pungent. Additionally, their thick fur can trap odors from their natural environment, contributing to their overall smell. This unique scent is a characteristic feature of these animals, especially during breeding times.
