Peissel, Michel. 1965??66? Mustang, Remote Realm in Nepal. National Geographic : 579-605.

Has many pictures with the article. This article gives a since of the culture. Excerpts are as follows: "A yak is an exceedingly versatile animal. It gives wool for clothing, and the female, called a dri, gives milk to drink. Once a year yaks are bled and their dried blood is eaten. You can plow a field with a yak, ride a yak, or load it with a heavy pack. You burn its dung for warmth. Its busy tail commands a high price in India as a fly whisk. And when a yak falls over a cliff, its lucky owner (who, by law, is not allowed to kill his animal) inherits as much as 800 pounds of meat."
