zebu

n. type of ox

Zebus (Bos primigenius indicus), sometimes known as 'humped cattle' or 'indicus' cattle, are better-adapted to tropical environments than the other domestic cattle, the Bos primigenius taurus or 'taurine' types. The scientific name of zebu cattle was originally Bos indicus, but this name is now deemed invalid by ITIS, who classify the zebu under Bos primigenius along with all other domestic cattle and their extinct aurochs ancestors. However, domestic cattle are sometimes regarded as a separate species to the aurochs, in which case Zebu are known as Bos taurus indicus.
