Having an animal with horns 2 feet long that weighs 1200-1500 pounds around the office sounds like a recipe for trouble.

Animals can get quite aggressive when they’re put in unfamiliar surroundings, and I’ll bet that Yak doesn’t spend much time in offices.

It would be a lot more interesting video if the Yak was running around crazy, trampling cubicles and swinging his head wildly with a couple of office workers dangling from his horns.

Now that would be fun and creative!

He also appeared potty-trained! Either that or there was a "twit" lurking behind with a shovel and pail!!!
