The aurochs was a species of large wild cattle that inhabited Europe, Asia, and North Africa until it became extinct in the 17th century. It was one of the ancestors of modern domesticated cattle. The aurochs were massive creatures, standing over six feet tall at the shoulders and weighing around 2,000 pounds. They had long, sharp horns that curved forwards and a thick, shaggy coat. Aurochs played an important role in human history as they were hunted for meat and their hides were used for clothing and shelter. The last known individual of the species died in Poland in 1627. Efforts have been made to revive the aurochs through selective breeding using modern cattle breeds that carry genetic similarities to their ancestors.

The main products of aurochs were meat, hides, and bones.
