Since the fall of 2019, the herd of gaur (Bos gaurus) grew by 7, including two that were born while the zoo was closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Gaur are native to southern Asia and are the world’s largest species of wild cattle. The Bronx Zoo gaur herd, which is the largest herd of gaur in zoos accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, can be seen from the zoo’s Wild Asia Monorail.
