Muskoxen are dedicated to their herd.
When the Leader senses danger, the males will form a circle around the herd, with their heads facing outward.
This positioning of their bodies allow them to see the predators and engage in battle as necessary.
Every herd needs a Leader.
Our intrepid Muskox has been "asked" to consider accepting the position.
FOLLOW THE LEADER? is a spectacular Nuveeya Aipellee Muskox.
Nuveeya was a traditional carver whose carving are still sought after.
Happy is the Collector who finds a Vintage Aipelle Muskox after all these years.
Nuveeya's subjects were carved with love and a sense of humour.
The physical features of the Muskoxen have gentle lines, beautiful proportions and exquisite details such as the headpieces and inset eyes.
