The Story of The Yak Ranch

The Yak Ranch was established in 2015 owned and operated by myself Jennifer Rath. In 2015 I purchased my first group of 33 animals out of BC. In a effort to better the industry and temperament of yaks in Canada I decided to buy as many yaks as I could to start a foundation of yaks to build off of. 12 different groups of yaks were purchased over the years and culled through every year to produce the best and quietest animals. In 2019 I imported 24 yaks from the United States to add some genetic diversity back into Canadian yaks as the genetic pool in Canada was quite small. The mix of the two genetics has produced some incredible stock with great hardiness and growth rates!
My breeding program revolves around high fibre producing animals with beautiful colors, growth rates, conformation and exceptional temperaments. I am always striving to produce the healthiest most profitable, quality yak possible. If you are interested in starting your own top quality herd we have the yaks for you! Weanling yak calves are mainly offered in the fall but there is generally a variety of yaks available throughout the year or I can connect you with another reputable breeder.
