Bovidae
Antilope cervicapra · Least concern
In Hindu mythology the blackbuck draws the chariot of Krishna, and Indian and Nepali villagers traditionally leave it unharmed. Males are dark brown to black with white rings around the eyes and corkscrew horns up to 75 cm; females are fawn and usually hornless. It can run at 80 km/h.

Bovidae
Pseudois nayaur · Least concern
The bharal is called 'blue sheep' for the bluish tint of its fur, yet it is genetically closer to goats than to sheep. It lives on Himalayan slopes at 2,200 to 5,500 m, and males carry curved horns up to 80 cm.

Bovidae
Ovis canadensis · Least concern
A bighorn ram's horns can weigh up to 30 lb (14 kg), as much as all the bones in its body. Bighorns crossed from Siberia over the Bering land bridge and once numbered in the millions in North America, but by 1900 the population had crashed to several thousand.
